Introduction
Devotion, tradition and craftsmanship. Since 1872 our skills have been passed on from generation to generation realizing some of the most beautiful ecclesiastical artworks for religious institutions around the world. Designed and exclusively handcrafted in Italy.
Handcrafted statues
To make statues is our passion. The trademark “Demetz Art Studio” stands for the best, the world leader in the creation of large sculptures. You can choose from a vast selection of statues, from small to very large. In our line you will find many figures of Jesus Christ, crucified and resurrected, of Our Lady, different Nativity sets, and a great number of Saints. All in a modern Italian style, with straight lines and beautiful faces. Also, if you have special wishes or you are devoted to a particular Saint which we don’t carry in our standard line, please contact us.
Outdoor sculptures
The Demetz Art Studio has perfected its own long tradition in using fine materials to create beautiful statues for outdoor placement. For centuries marble stone or bronze castings materials are one of the most durable forms of art created by man. Another very durable, yet cost effective material for outdoor statues or monuments is fiberglass and polyester resin.
Mosaic art
Its bright colors will never fade away. Made from tesserae, which are small pieces of brilliant colored glass, ceramic, enamels, or even genuine 24 carat gold on glass, cut in a cubical or other regular shape and then applied one next to the other keeping a precise spacing between them.
Big projects
No size is too big for us! We are wellknown for creating large statues in many different materials and forms. Our studio is well-equipped for large scale work and our staff is very experienced in realizing large and unique masterpieces such as this 12 ft – 6 meter tall Risen Christ

Restauration & Replicas
Our expertise extends to reproducing exquisite replicas of cherished antiques in wood or other media. The Demetz Art Studio has also the ability to restore works of art. We do not only restore pieces that were originally made by our studio but even statues made by unknown artists. If you have a statue that needs to be repaired, restored, refinished, or simply needs a touch up, we can do it. No damage is beyond our restoration skills. No job is too large or too small.
Third party works
Our studio also manufactures exclusive works for renowned artists, different companies, or religious orders. These masterpieces are created solely for the copyright holder.

Whereby, we will be able to match your individual preferences with a liturgically correct depiction. This, to evoke devotion and add mysticism, which must never lack in sacred art.
