Hybrid Architectural Figurative Bust in Black Cement. Anthropotectura “LarA 011”
Located in FISTERRA, ES
“LarA 011” is a unique architectural sculpture from the Antropotectura series by Spanish artist José Perozo. Cast in black pigmented cement, this head-and-shoulders bust presents a fusion of the human figure with modular architectural volumes. The vertical extension of block-like forms emerges from the cranial area, transforming the head into a structural topography. This hybrid configuration invites reflection on the human body as both inhabited and inhabiting — a site of memory, construction, and symbolic permanence. The formal arrangement of the sculpture is symmetrical but discontinuous, with geometric protrusions interrupting the organic contours of the face. These elements suggest urban formations, perhaps ruins or unfinished constructions, anchored to the surface of the skin. This layered structure evokes the aesthetic of posthuman figuration and resonates with speculative architectural languages often seen in anime environments — particularly those of Studio Ghibli or early cybernetic landscapes. The matte black surface finish accentuates the raw tactility of the material. Subtle tonal variations, occasional air pockets, and manual traces from the casting process are preserved, underscoring the artist’s interest in the sculptural language of construction materials. These choices align with the conceptual underpinning of Antropotectura, a term coined by Perozo to describe his ongoing investigation into the convergence of embodiment and architecture. About the Artist: José Perozo (Vigo, 1978) is a Spanish sculptor with a background in Scenic Construction and Fine Arts. His practice explores how built structures can be inscribed onto the human form, merging classical figuration with a contemporary sculptural grammar. The LarA series has been exhibited in institutional and independent contexts and is currently represented by Casa das Peritas. About Casa das Peritas: This work is presented by Casa das Peritas, an independent art space located in Galicia’s Atlantic coast, working with international collectors, designers, and institutions. Known for its curated selection of contemporary figurative and conceptual works, the gallery combines rural precision with global outreach. All works include certificates of authenticity and are shipped with personalized follow-up and care. Visitors are encouraged to follow our storefront to explore new additions and artist collaborations. Technical Details: Title: LarA 011 Series: Antropotectura Artist: José Perozo Medium: Black pigmented cement with fine aggregates and acrylic fibers Finish: Hand-tinted and sealed with matte protective varnish Dimensions: 21 x 29 x 17 cm Weight: 6 kg Year: 2024 Packaging: Custom-made box (27 x 35 x 23 cm) for secure international delivery Authenticity: Signed by the artist with certificate included Installation and Context: The sculpture may be installed as a freestanding work in display niches, shelving, or plinths. Its formal and material language lends itself to architectural, conceptual, and collectible sculpture contexts, making it suitable for residential interiors, institutional settings, or design-driven environments.

The Portal: World We See - contemporary, geometric, abstract, steel sculpture
Located in Bloomfield, ON
This impressive circular architectural sculpture was created by Jeffrey Gillmor. An experienced metal artisan, this outdoor piece—a circle cut from a square is forged from etched steel and has a rust-coloured patina. Gillmor favours minimalist forms and finds inspiration for his work in nature’s colours, textures and shapes. World We See allows the viewer to not only see through the expansive ‘portal’ but walk through it as well. This is the largest of three similar sculptures in a series, each cut from the same four face plates of steel, producing another sculpture from the inside of the last. This piece is in an edition of 5 and is available on commission. Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery upon completion. “The World we see and live in is much more complex than I feel it has to be, so we need to keep (everything) in perspective, keep basic positive values ... as we pass through the circle of life.” Jeff Gillmor...

Spanish Catalan Xavier Corbero Bronze Steel Architectural Abstract Sculpture
By Xavier Corberó i Olivella
Located in Surfside, FL
Xavier Corberó Olivella (1935 – 2017) Estructuras Continual Bronze sculpture. Comprised of four elements, independant, 1 spheric. 5 X 8 X 7 inches approximately. The pieces are kinetic and moveable so dimensions are a bit variable. This is accompanied by a hand signed and dated photo certificate of the piece. A silver gelatin photograph. The photo is badly torn. Xavier Corberó i Olivella (1935 – 2017) was a prominent Catalan artist, best known for monumental public sculpture and his palatial house complex in Esplugues de Llobregat near Barcelona. He has been described as "widely considered the most important Catalan artist since Antonio Gaudí," as "one of Spain’s most celebrated sculptors" and as having "perhaps influenced Barcelona more than any artist since Gaudí." Corberó's grandfather Pere Corberó i Casals (1875-1959) was an entrepreneur and artist whose works included the bronze memorial on the birthplace of Enrique Granados, also in Lleida. He was a cofounder of Barcelona's association for the promotion of decorative arts, a precursor to the Design Museum, now known as the Foment de les Arts i el Disseny. The Corberó foundry produced sculptures by prominent Catalan sculptors of the time such as Pablo Gargallo, Josep Viladomat and Frederic Marès. It was also an industrial and commercial business that sold bronze doors, chandeliers, fountains, and other decorative items, with a showroom in downtown Barcelona at Rambla de Catalunya 105, in a building designed by Arnau Calvet i Peyronill, and a workshop nearby at Carrer Aribau 103. Pere's son and Corberó's father, Xavier Corberó i Trepat (1901-1981), also worked in the family bronze...

Nude, Abstract and Figurative Sculptures for Sale

The history of sculpture as we know it is believed to have origins in Ancient Greece, while small sculptural carvings are among the most common examples of prehistoric art. In short, sculpture as a fine art has been with us forever. A powerful three-dimensional means of creative expression, sculpture has long been most frequently associated with religion — consider the limestone Great Sphinx in Giza, Egypt — while the tradition of collecting sculpture, which has also been traced back to Greece as well as to China, far precedes the emergence of museums.

Technique and materials in sculpture have changed over time. Stone sculpture, which essentially began as images carved into cave walls, is as old as human civilization itself. The majority of surviving sculpted works from ancient cultures are stone. Traditionally, this material and pottery as well as metalbronze in particular — were among the most common materials associated with this field of visual art. Artists have long sought new ways and materials in order to make sculptures and express their ideas. Material, after all, is the vehicle through which artists express themselves, or at least work out the problems knocking around in their heads. It also allows them to push the boundaries of form, subverting our expectations and upending convention. As an influential sculptor as much as he was a revolutionary painter and printmaker, Pablo Picasso worked with everything from wire to wood to bicycle seats.

If you are a lover of art and antiques or are thinking of bringing a work of sculpture into your home for the first time, there are several details to keep in mind. As with all other works of art, think about what you like. What speaks to you? Visit local galleries and museums. Take in works of public art and art fairs when you can and find out what kind of sculpture you like. When you’ve come to a decision about a specific work, try to find out all you can about the piece, and if you’re not buying from a sculptor directly, work with an art expert to confirm the work’s authenticity.

And when you bring your sculpture home, remember: No matter how big or small your new addition is, it will make a statement in your space. Large- and even medium-sized sculptures can be heavy, so hire some professional art handlers as necessary and find a good place in your home for your piece. Whether you’re installing a towering new figurative sculpture — a colorful character by KAWS or hyperreal work by Carole A. Feuerman, perhaps — or an abstract work by Won Lee, you’ll want the sculpture to be safe from being knocked over. (You’ll find that most sculptures should be displayed at eye level, while some large busts look best from below.)
