Bart Somers (born 1958) is a Dutch self-taught sculptor known for his modern and stylized sculptures, often made from materials such as corten steel and stainless steel.

His work is characterized by a sleek formal language in which abstraction and figuration meet. Through the rust color of corten steel and the shine of stainless steel, he plays with light, space and texture.

His sculptures vary from stylized animals to abstract shapes and have a strong visual impact through their simplicity and balance.

Somers is a master in working with steel, which he describes as a material that he "sculpts with a forging hammer" and "paints with a cutting torch".

This results in open, dynamic sculptures that enter into a dialogue with their surroundings. His works can be seen worldwide in public spaces, museums and private collections, with a strong representation in the Netherlands.
