The Making of Cornelia and Cedric at Biltmore

We've been working with Biltmore Estate curators in Asheville and are thrilled to announce that the Biltmore Inn's lobby exhibition case will feature "The Making of Cornelia and Cedric," as told through photographs and text, and include in-progress images from Vadim Bora's studio, as well as archival images upon which the artist based the bronze sculpture "Cornelia and Cedric." The exhibition continues through August.

Good Tidings

To a joyful present and a well-remembered past. Good tidings to all.

Best wishes for a happy and healthy 2012.

Cornelia Again

Last warm weather photos of Cornelia in 2011. With 11/11/11 a blustery 29 F degrees, wind, snow, rain will soon follow. Candlelight Christmas begins on Biltmore Estate this week, meaning possibly tens of thousands more will see Vadim's Cornelia and Cedric. Curators say it is now one of the most photographed images on the Estate.

Celebrating Vadim Bora Sculpture

Vadim Bora's Cornelia and Cedric commission was dedicated on Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC, a mere year ago. The sculpture continues to delight visitors, particularly children. Vadim Bora created the most delicate texture for Cornelia's "skin," visible even in hard bronze.

Doors of Asheville Dedication

Mountain Housing Opportunities dedicated the annual Doors of Asheville event and art auction 2011 to Vadim Bora on September 9. Vadim contributed to this event since its inception and fought for recognition of donating artists to receive honorariums and publicity. Artists chosen for the Doors of Asheville now receive an honorarium for their work, inclusion in a catalog, and public recognition. Funds raised from the art auction go to improving homes, neighborhoods and communities for the underprivileged.
