circa 1956
About the Item
Albert Wein is one of America's great sculptors of the modernist period. Like Paul Manship he won the Prix de Rome and he traveled there to study. His early works were in the WPA and the Deco style. He then kept with the times and explored other movements as they came along in New York and California. Wein was deeply impressed by the music of Pablo Casals and met him. This cast has a lovely green patina and demonstrates a slight Cubist approach to the form but with a softened feel that was pre-dominant in the 1950's. His editions are always under 12 but this edition was probably less and this one is numbered 1 of 9. He cast it in Italy at the Tommasi foundry in Pietrasanta.
A great bronze for a music room, a living room and its a size that can go on any table. An eye appealing work on all fronts. A book is available on the artist and it accompanies the sculpture.

By Robert Cook
Located in Greenwich, CT
Robert Cook’s Splash sculpture draws inspiration from the iconic photograph of a drop of milk creating a circle and splash in a pool of milk. This fleeting moment of suspended motion sparked Cook’s exploration of how to capture such dynamic energy in a static form.
Robert Cook was a great American sculptor and his works are in many museums and his iconic Dinoseras piece commands a spot on the street of New York at 51st Street.
Important to note with this work that it is unique and there are no other casts. Cook sculpted in wax and when he cast this destroyed the wax and there was no mould. Very few sculptors work in this manner and it speaks to a very pure and altruistic form of sculpture. If perhaps he had been more commercially minded he would have done large editions but instead he valued singularity as in nature.
In Splash, Cook freezes a moment of kinetic energy, capturing the elegant tension between impact and expansion. The sculpture embodies both grace and chaos, with a fluidity that suggests movement at the very instant it’s frozen in time. Cook’s mastery of his medium allows this dynamic moment to be immortalized in bronze, creating a powerful and emotional resonance that transcends the physical form, making Splash both a formal and philosophical exploration of time, space, and motion.
