About the Item

#garden #sculpture #contempraryart #decoration #outdoors #bronze #nature #acorn This large bronze sculpture is a contemporary art piece which can also serve as art for the garden or outdoors. María José de la Macorra (México, D.F., 1964) realizó sus estudios en la Escuela de Cerámica y Porcelana de Toluca, Mokichi Okada Association, moa (1987-1989) y en la Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas de la unam (1993-1996) Su obra juega con la pequeña y gran escala y se desarrolla orgánicamente en el espacio, haciéndonos conscientes de nuestra presencia en él. De esta manera, permite que se creen vínculos entre la obra de arte, el público que interactúa con ella y el contexto en que ambos se desarrollan. Se dedica principalmente al dibujo, el bordado, la escultura, la instalación y el video, y su obra está cargada de referencias personales, sociales y ambientales, mediante las cuales busca hacer evidente lo que no se ve a simple vista y que constantemente damos por hecho. A lo largo de su carrera ha explorado diversos medios, conceptos y materiales, girando siempre en torno de un gran interés por la naturaleza, sus procesos y sus formas, así como por las configuraciones espaciales y materiales que ésta asume y abandona en su constante estado de transitoriedad. Su producción se mueve libremente entre una visión microscópica y cartográfica de su tema, reforzando así la sensación o sentido de imbricación física e identificación del espectador con la obra.

  • Art Deco Sculpture by Paul Lobel RKO Roxy Theatre Rockefeller Center

    Bronze art deco ram sculpture by Paul A. Lobel from the RKO Roxy Theater, Rockefeller Center, New York. Hand wrought. Provenance: RKO, Roxy Center Theatre; Mr. Eugene Lee Schoen; Mr. Neal Prince & Mr. Herbert Wade Hemphill Jr.; Mr. Neal Prince; The Trust of the above; Heritage Auctions. Presented by Joseph Dasta Antiques Paul Lobel (1899 - 1983): The accomplishments of Paul A. Lobel, industrial designer, metalsmith, sculptor and cartoonist/illustrator, may be viewed as the quintessential American success story. Born in Romania, at the turn of the century, he emigrated to the United States while an infant, and, from humble beginnings on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, grew up to attain a one-man show in Paris in 1925, win two awards at the International Exposition of Decorative Arts in Paris in 1932, be the subject of two exhibitions at the American Museum of Art and The Museum of Modern Art in New York City. He also founded an innovative jewelry and metals studio/shop in New York’s Greenwich Village. Furthermore, his contemporaries regarded him with awe and almost everything he attempted came to fruition. In the summer of 1926 Lobel exhibited 35 works, including drawings, etchings, paintings, metalwork and sculpture, in a one-man show at the Grande Librairie Universelle in Paris. During the next year, he toured London, Rome, Florence, Rotterdam, Brussels and Berlin, then, broke, returned to America where he again rented desk space and tried to resume his advertising career. But he was haunted by the modern design that he had been exposed to in Paris. So, after borrowing money to open a metalwork studio on Lexington Avenue, he sought out architect Eugene Schoen, an enthusiast of modern design, whom he had formerly been introduced to by Boardman Robinson. Schoen was in the process of opening a gallery devoted to showing the work of designers and craftsmen imbued with the spirit of modernism...
