About Cow Parade
CowParade is the largest and most successful public art event in the world. CowParade events have been staged in over 50 cities worldwide including New York, London, Tokyo, Mexico City, and Paris since 1999. It is estimated that over 100 million people around the world have seen the cow parade collection.
CowParade’s line of figurines is among the top collectibles in the world. Each figurine is an authentic, detailed replica in a miniature format of a cow from an official CowParade event. The originals have been painted by over 5,000 artists worldwide from the professional and amateur, famous, unknown and emerging to the young and old. Including few of the noted artists: Peter Max, Richard Haas, Burton Morris; noted architects: Robert Stern, Lord Norman Foster ; Karim Rashid (Designer, Milan); Ronnie Wood (Musician, Rolling Stones, London); David Lynch (Movie Director, New York) few of the Designers and Celebrity Artists .
Why cows? This is a popular question. Simply, the cow is a universally beloved animal. The cow represents different things to different people around the world-she’s sacred, she’s historical, and she connects us to our past-but the common feeling is one of affection. There is something magical about the cow that transcends throughout the world. She simply makes everyone smile.
As an art canvas, there is no other animal or object that provides the form, flexibility, and contiguous breadth of a cow. The three shapes (standing, grazing, reclining) provide artists with subtle, yet interesting angles and curves to create unique works of art. The basic cow form is also benign so that it can be altered, transformed, and morphed into completely other animals, people or objects. Incredibly, over 2500 hundred Cows have been created worldwide, but no two are alike.
The figurines are made of polyresin fibre glass. Each herd includes a mosaic of cows from different events, to give the fans a sophisticated and international collection of art.
