L’éléphant Console II, USA, 2022

About the Item

Alex Roskin’s L’éléphant Console reflects the artist’s modernist and primitivist influences. His works blend functional design with modernist sculptural references. A natural successor of innovative artists such as Richard Serra, Jean Arp, and Constantin Brancusi, Roskin’s cast bronze, stainless steel, and carved wood works reflects the artist’s modernist and primitive influences. The console’s muscular sculpted shape is stainless steel, and polished to a mirror finish. The base of the table, bowed and sinuous, fluidly extends to meet the floor. Beginning with a series of quick sketches, Roskin captures the movement of a basic form. By sculpting in foam and wood Roskin translates that movement into a structural model that is then 3D scanned so that it can then be cast in bronze, aluminum or steel, and finished with carved wood elements. His works often feature a mammalian physicality with heaving sinuous forms and legs that extend from the body in a bowed fashion.
