World Championships for Icelandic Horses

Monday 8 August to Sunday 13 August, bronze sculptures by Jos Dirix Sculptures complemented the entourage of the straw village during the World Championship for Icelandic Horses 2023. 'A week of fine encounters and enthusiastic welcome has been translated into fantastic support and excellent sales,' said winner of the Best Exhibitor WC 2023 award Jos Dirix. 'I am sure I speak for all exhibitors when I say that we look back on an extremely well-organised and successful week in Oirschot'.

With rave reviews, Jos Dirix Sculptures has been invited for a presentation at the Landsmot in Reykjavik 2024. And plans have been made for a presentation at a similar level for the World Championship for Icelandic Horses in 2025 in Switzerland. We'll meet again!

A Horse Called Corona

All of a sudden the world faced Covid 19 and sculptor Jos Dirix made the decision to work with wood during the lockdown. Surprising, considering Dirix’s impressive oeuvre in bronze. A Horse Called Corona grew to be a life-size sculpture, constructed from wood of a linden tree sawn into planks. A horse, paralysed by fear, its legs rigid and tense, its head and neck erect. Dirix's creative urge is also set in bronze. A Horse Called Corona has been cast in bronze in several sizes. Each of these bronze sculptures possess the specific characterizations of the wooden A Horse Called Corona.
