The Dolmen by Martine Demal - Contemporary bronze sculpture, Semi Abstract
Located in Paris, FR
Bronze sculpture, , white stone plinth. 43 cm × 17 cm × 10 cm. Limited edition of 8 + 4 A.P., each signed and numbered. The indicated dimensions include the base of the sculpture, which is 10 cm H x 14 cm L x 10 cm D. The sculpture dimensions are 33 cm H x 17 cm L x 7,5 cm D. This is a very mineral looking and uncluttered sculpture, whose title is a reference to a prehistoric megalithic site. The sculpture becomes a new way of suggesting duality. The body, again the creative starting point, remains sensitively in place through a balancing game and connection between the entities. A few movements are enough for the Man and Woman to interact and for abstract to prevail over pure representation. The sculpture’s plinth - a real challenge to match with the artwork for the artist - is a moulded and cut brick. In keeping a very balanced approach, its light colour compliments the artwork’s mineral form. Photo credit: © Christian Baraja, © Martine Demal...

Decorating with Abstract Sculpture

If you’re thinking about decorating your space with abstract sculpture, there are a couple of things to keep in mind.

You don’t have to look for a piece that demands attention. Find a work of abstract sculpture that speaks to you. As is the case with any abstract art, whether it’s sculpture, an abstract painting or a grouping of prints, you can select a work for your living room or dining room, for example, that will either casually fade into the background or serve as a focal point. When you’re thinking about how to arrange your furniture and decor, consider color, texture and what kind of energy you’d like a specific room or corner to evoke. Abstract sculpture can go a long way in elevating a home, and its history is interesting if you’re shopping for a new piece today.

As a pioneer in naturalistic forms and figures that vividly express emotion, Auguste Rodin is often called the father of modern sculpture. His work in the 19th and early 20th century broke with artistic conventions and inspired modernism, leading to a new period of avant-garde abstraction.

Among the first artists to push abstract sculpture into the mainstream were Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. They helped define the movement of Cubism, which focused on deconstructing the world abstractly.

Later in the 20th century, the artistic movements of Italian Futurism, Dadaism, Neo-Dadaism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism and minimalism all contributed to the advancement of new and more abstract sculpture designs. Italian Futurism, for example, celebrated movement, dynamics and technology in abstract sculpture. These movements passed down ideas that continue to inform abstract sculpture today.
