The world premiere exhibition of “RETURN OF THE SWANS” a mixed-media sculpture, took place in Montreal in August, 2008. The piece, which depicts two swans, one resting and one flying, under a blown- glass sun, was a collaborative work by three generations of artists-Academy trained Czech painter Stanislav Stanek, his son Ivan, and grandson Michal. The work represents an artistic heritage passed down from father to son, each specializing in his own medium.

"Dad, how about we'll make a sculpture together??? You design it, I forged it, Mike will make hand blow glass to it, all three of us collaborated on it! You love a swans, how about return of the swans they always return to your pond." So, sketch and model we made. It gave us a thought to make a bigger sculpture " Return of the swans " and also thought for a documentary movie about three generations of artists collaborating together on one sculpture: "My blues and greens" we named the movie.

Sample from the movie Stanislav Stanek
My Blues and Greens, the 2009 winner of the
Beijing Film Festival Crying Monkey Award for non-fiction film.
John ask me if I could make a weathervane for his Galley Hatch Restaurant as we were talking on the bar. "What you vision on the roof?" I asked him. He said: "I want served Mediterranean Sea fish, sketch for me a fish floating in the air." OK. I had a lot of fun to do it.

Installation included.
How I started: My Art Studio star to be ready for assembly of sculpture metal segments one by one were put together on circular base 36\"wide
My friends long Ra and short Nin were standing beside to give me a hand.
After 3th. Parallel world was attached and weld in I could step back and reach for model and confirm position of angles.
While short Nin enjoys looks out from studio I had to build exterior gate door because #5 parallel world coming down from cathedral ceiling above need room and studio garage door was in the way.
5th dimension comes and was permanently welded in nothing will separated parallel worlds ever. Sculpture resting on studio floor waiting for next day, tomorrow I'll remove ceiling crane and parallel world scale down model can take a rest after 3 months of hard work.
Let's go to install!!!
