Behind Bigfoot: Meet Artist Idan Zareski

His signature family of Bigfoot sculptures have popped up around the world from the Swiss Alps to the beaches of Costa Rica to Art Basel Miami. The big feet represent human kind’s universal attachment to the planet. “Despite our race or color, where we live or who we are, we are all connected to one paradisiac planet: one home,” explains French-Israeli sculptor Idan Zareski who creates his sculptures by instinct and emotion rather than sketches and never took a single art class.

LeTouquet: This summer, the city of Le Touquet in northern France will showcase Idan’s sculptures in various public places around the city, including the Musée du Touquet’s gardens. Le Touquet, a city long known as the playground of rich Parisians, also houses French President Emmanuel Macron’s weekend abode.

Bel-Air Fine Art St. Tropez: This summer, Idan’s sculptures will be displayed at the highly acclaimed international art group Bel-Air Fine Art’s Saint Tropez locale.

ECHO Brickell: Idan recently installed a one-of-a-kind sculpture measuring over 15 feet tall, transforming Echo Brickell‘s main entrance into an iconic focal point.
