FIFA - Found Object Sculpture with Deflated Soccer Ball and Barbed Wire

2021

About the Item

A found object is a natural or man-made item, or fragment of an item that is found by an artist and kept because of some intrinsic interest the artist sees in it. Beginning with Picasso, who incorporated newspapers and matchboxes into his cubist collages and constructions, this idea has been carried forward. It was popular with the Dada and Surrealist movements and with such great artists as Damien Hurst and Henry Moore. Here, artist Rick Farrell has taken those ideals, incorporating many found objects that have inspired him, to create these small unorthodox sculptures.
