Vladimir W. Rodin is creator of fine art in form of jewelry and accassories made from gold, platinum, sterling silver, bronze and precious stones.
Rodin's first influences were drawn from his observation of the beauty and complexity of nature in the secluded Taiga forests of his native Siberia, Russia. These vivid visual impressions remain a constant source of inspiration for his work. Rodin's designs capture the essence of each sabject he depicts, and summon a sense of timelessness, quality and beauty.
After graduation at the Moscow Theater College, Rodin worked for seven years in St. Petersburg Hermitage Museum (Winter Palace) His exposure to extraordinary paintings, sculptures and architecture of St.Petersburg provided Rodin with deeper appreciation for the level of the craftmanship requierd for an object to survive through the ages. Inspierd by the beauty and timeless appeal of the museum's jewelry collection, Rodin realized his life long passion to express himself through the design and creation of fine jewelry and accsessories. In addition to jewelry design, Rodin is an accomplished painter. Leaving Russia in the mid-ceventies he setteled briefly in Italy where his paintings were soled through gallery in Rome Apon relocating to New York city in 1979, Rodins's career as jewelry designer and model maker flourished.
