Mike Duhan: 'Bronze is really expensive. Every piece costs thousands to cast'

Sculptor Mike Duhan, who specialises in bronze figures, says has no problem being described as a craftsman. The Limerick-born artist, a brother of singer, Johnny Duhan, is happy to remain outside the visual arts scene in this country.
"I'm not really a part of it and I don't want to be. I worked in full-time employment [as a technical art teacher at the National College of Art and Design] until retiring after thirty-four years when my wife got sick," says Duhan, whose work appears as part of an exhibition in the gardens of the Montennote Hotel in Cork.
