Mitchell FunkBig Bubbles and the Bethesda Fountain. 2011
2011
About the Item
Big bubble blowers create alien-looking biomorphic forms that frame the winged neo-classical bronze Bethesda Fountain crowed with pigeons.
It's set against fall foliage of soft warm yellows and oranges to create a delightful juxtaposition. Pigeons atop the stature seem oblivious to the lyrically beautiful yet mysterious air-born invaders.
Signed dated and numbered 3/15 lower right recto, other sizes available, unframed, printed later, Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper
