Guantanamo by Blake Ward, is a tragic figure of a young man tied to a post and then shot. This work was originally entitled: “A Tribute to the Military Genius of General Foch”. A sarcastic reference to this WW1 general’s military doctrine of: “pursuing a forceful offensive under all circumstances.” This forceful offensive was responsible for the atrocious casualties suffered during much of the 1st World War, and also lead to the horrendous treatment of the troops who hesitated to willingly throw themselves to their death.

Blake Ward was born in Yellowknife in the North West Territories in Canada, then raised and educated in Edmonton, Alberta where he received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Alberta in 1979. In 1985 Blake moved to Paris to study under Cyril Heck with whom he learned traditional techniques of modeling figurative sculpture. Blake’s early work represents anatomically correct details in the clay sculptures of his live models, the first step in a “lost wax method” of production where the final rendition was either cast in bronze, or sculpted in marble.
