Lawrence Holofcener
The Stride

c. 1960

About the Item

In The Stride, acclaimed sculptor Lawrence Holofcener captures the essence of motion, ambition, and personal progress. Cast in bronze, the figure is frozen mid-step. One leg confidently extended, arms swinging in rhythm, suggesting both physical movement and a metaphorical journey forward. The sculpture exudes a quiet power, its subject caught in a moment of purposeful motion that evokes determination, resilience, and optimism. Holofcener’s signature blend of abstraction and expressive form is on full display, with careful attention given to anatomical detail and the natural fluidity of the walking posture. The surface bears the marks of the artist’s hand, adding texture and vitality to the composition. There’s an immediacy to the figure, as if it might continue walking at any moment, drawing viewers into its narrative.
