Black Orbit by Kuno Vollet - Large Contemporary Round Orbit sculpture

2024

About the Item

A large contemporary black powder coated steel sculpture. Beautiful on the floor or a pedestal. A contemporary statement piece full of elegance and movement. _______________________________________________________________________ Born in 1951 in Petersaurach, located in Upper Franconia, artist Kuno Vollet attended the University of Kassel from 1969 to 1973, where he studied painting, design, printmaking, and ceramics. His highly elegant and versatile sculptural works are made from manifold materials such as steel, bronze, brass and ceramics. This fusion of inherently incompatible elements, the merging of the heavy with the light, is exceptionally successful in the weightless sculptures of Kuno Vollet: In their aesthetic defiance of gravity, they depict the cosmic play of constant creation and decay, perpetual transformation, the elegant dance of elements, and thus capture a moment beyond time. Kuno Vollet primarily uses brass and bronze as materials for his artworks. Other works are not cast but heated and forged from iron in the forge. Each piece is given its own patina or is leaf-gilded. Some bronze work is polished until it gleams like gold. The kilo-heavy yet delicate-looking structures are then mounted on a stone base, which  impressively contrasts with the seemingly floating work. However, the overall effect of the sculptures does not solely result from the flowing forms and their stone base. It is, not least, the surrounding space that seems inseparable from the substance of the sculpture and is an essential part of their impact: Kuno Vollet, so to speak, brings the "in - between" into visibility. This is precisely what gives his works their fascinating charm. About the Gallery: Folly and Muse was established in 2015 in London to find and collaborate with the most creative, talented, emerging and mid-career artists from all around the world. Folly & Muse (since 2019 in Munich) and has made it their mission to curate unique works of an exceptional quality and bring them to savvy contemporary art collectors with an eye out for abstract and figurative paintings, photography and sculptural works of art.
