Details

The Golden Calf was designed in 1980 by the Utrecht visual artist Theo Mackaay on behalf of Jos Stelling. The statue is 33 cm high and cast in bronze. Theo Mackaay was born in 1950 in Utrecht. After the stonemason training in Utrecht, he studied from 1971 to 1976 at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy and from 1976 to 1978 at the Rijksakademie for visual arts in Amsterdam. Mackaay's work is characterized by classic archetypes, often of animals, warriors or women. His most famous statue is perhaps the Golden Calf. Theo Mackaay's work can be found in many corporate and private collections.
