Joseph Goethe Reclining Form wood sculpture1955
1955
About the Item
Joseph Goethe was one of America's modernist sculptors who explored carving in wood. He had a passion for exotic woods and fashioned his subjects according to how the piece of wood inspired him. This piece is fairly large scale and can sit on a floor or a low to mid-high pedestal. It is meant to have a slightly figurative aspect and it is visually interesting from all angles. The grain and character of the wood is of importance. Its a wonderful work as it feels slightly surreal, very suggestive and firm in its personality - great for a home that has an emphasis on the organic or needs to counteract a slickness with something naturalistic.
A well noted sculptor who had many exhibitions and is represented in museum collections.

- Untitled (Wheat)By Harry BertoiaLocated in Greenwich, CTBertoia's "wheat" pieces are rare and a joy. These works do not make sound when one touches the tines and is meant less to be touched than to convey an organic feel of sunlight rippling through stalks of golden wheat. This is a great size for a table. An unusual composition for Bertoia, Untitled (Wheat) combines elements with the artist’s more familiar Tonals with those of the Sprays. Typical of the artist’s œuvre however is the pleasant sensation of touch when stroking the ends of the wires. Bertoia’s spray sculptures...Category
