About the Item

This work explores the sculptural capacities of the hands. Stripping them from their symbolism or the functions for which they are normally used, Nico Baixas explored them like someone examining a foreign body, searching for their limits and pushing them in different directions. To do this, he used opposed sculptural concepts like straight-curved, and simple-complex; searched for the interconnection between fingers, and the balance between distances, and tried to generate geometric shapes and textures. At times, the artist would find shapes that were like doors opening onto a myriad of new possibilities. Throughout the process, he discovered a world of fingers that transformed reality, taking it to another level. Nico Baixas created a line of personal artistic work that he signs as Gos-com-fuig. With this alter ego, he uses his hands and body to paint and create abstract and figurative photographs, videos, sculptures and multimedia performances that give the viewer a lot of freedom of interpretation, providing the feeling of freedom and openness that Nico admired in his early influences. This series of works consists of a collection of a thousand hand postures that show all the shapes that can be created with both hands.

Untitled #22 (Man's Hands), 2013 - Limited Edition Silver Gelatin print
By Giacomo Brunelli
Located in Brighton, GB
Untitled #22 (Man's Hands) from the series Eternal London is a Limited Edition Silver Gelatin print by Giacomo Brunelli. This size of 9" x 12" from a Limited Edition of 10. As the edition sells through, the print increases in price to reflect rarity. Giacomo Brunelli was commissioned by The Photographer's Gallery, London, to capture the heart of the capital city where he lives. Made over the course of 2 years, Eternal London takes Brunelli's distinctive film noir aesthetic to create an evocative and atmospheric view of London, full of powerful light and shadow work. Framed by boldly abstract silhouettes of people and animals, London's famous landmarks are presented in a less-than-obvious way, reflected in the puddles that typify English weather or looming as a mysterious structure in the background.
