Edgar Tafur (Colombian, 1929 - 2007) Chrome Over Bronze Sculpture Undated, signed on side near bottom, abstract sculpture Dimensions: Height: 12 3/4 inches, Width: 4 inches, Depth: 3 3/4 inches Mod Space Age Chrome over Bronze Abstract Architectural Totem Cast Sculpture Edgar Alonso Tafur, Latin American artist born and raised in Cali.

This has an abstract flora, cactus like shape to it. He is from the generation of Colombian artists who rose to prominence in the mid 20th century which included Fernando Botero, Doris Salcedo, Oscar Murillo, Antonio Caro...
