“David Klein is the finest young sculptor working now in the UK. His work has that extra quality of perception only apparent in a true artist. I am a painter, but was immediately seized with delight when I first came across Klein’s work. I am lucky to have two of his pieces - which have depth beyond the first impression. Klein has the ability to get into the soul of his subject, whatever it might be. There are so many superficial sculptors about that it is a joy to come across a real genius. This is a young man to watch and collect.”
