“Dreams are built… one brick at a time!” Nathan Sawaya

Welcome to the incredible art of LEGO® by Nathan Sawaya!

You dreamed about it, Nathan Sawaya did it! This exhibition is for everyone. Over an area of more than 1,000 sq mtrs, The Art of the Brick® immerses the visitor in Nathan Sawaya’s world, a world as cheerful and colorful as it is unsettling. The artist used more than one million bricks for this exhibit alone, creating artworks that bring a smile to the face or inspire reflection among young and old.

The exhibition offers the visitor a variety of sculptures: from Rodin’s Thinker and the Chartres Cathedral’s north rose window, to a dinosaur skeleton measuring 20 ft long constructed with 80,020 LEGO bricks.

Wait no longer! The Art of the Brick has been proclaimed by CNN as one of the world’s 10 must-see exhibitions and has already attracted millions of visitors worldwide in New York, Los Angeles, Melbourne, Shanghai and Singapore, Sao Paolo. In the play zone, at the end of the exhibit, LEGO bricks and WB® video games await visitors who are dying to give full rein to their creativity!

Who is Nathan Sawaya?

Born in Colville, Washington State, Nathan Sawaya grew up in Veneta, Oregon. A happy, creative child, Nathan loved to draw, write stories, do magic tricks, and of course… remake the world with LEGO® bricks. His law studies when he was a young adult put an end to a life of imagination and creativity and set him on a career as a New York lawyer. But leopards don’t change their spots! After several years of living life at high speed, Nathan Sawaya decided to give up everything and return to his first loves: play, imagination and creativity!

The artist, frustrated for too long, suddenly left the negotiation of contracts behind him and devoted his time to building figures with LEGO bricks, one of his first loves.

Today Nathan Sawaya has more than 4 million colored bricks in his studios in New York and Los Angeles and exhibits his creations worldwide.
