Bronx Figures surveys the collaborative sculptures of John Ahearn and Rigoberto Torres, capturing the vibrancy of Bronx communities since 1979. Their life-cast portraits, first created at Fashion Moda, have become lasting public artworks. Ahearn, rooted in social practice, met Torres, a Bronx-raised artist with casting expertise, forming a lifelong partnership. Their works, exhibited worldwide, celebrate everyday people, preserving the cultural fabric of New York through intimate, in-the-round sculptures.
