Umberto Del NegroUmberto Del Negro "Prove (Evidence)" Pottery Plaque Series
About the Item
These four ceramic plaques on wood are an exquisite set piece from the Italian artist Umberto Del Negro. Its title "Prove" is Italian for "Evidence". One interpretation is that it refers to evidence of existence, as the four figures appear to be silhouettes of the same person, albeit in a different stage. Growing older, fading, and then becoming a shadow.
Umberto Del Negro was a late 20th Century Italian artist. He was born in 1940. His artwork encompasses multiple mediums from mosaic, sculptures, and paintings. His work's subject matter spans an interest in the natural world and society's relationship to it, themes that he explores through his creative usage of each individual work's medium. The artist passed away in 2017.

- Walter Midener "Contemplation" Seated Figure Clay Sculpture Mid-Century ModernLocated in Detroit, MISALE ONE WEEK ONLY “Contemplation” is an abstract clay sculpture of a female. The figure has both arms and legs extended, but the dignified pose suggests an intimate rather than a sexual moment. The sculpture is delicately rendered, but monumental in pose and clean composition reminiscent of the English artist Henry Moore. The surface is warm and slightly rough to the touch. This sculpture is in the round and beautifully balanced geometrically with the hands clasped behind the head forming a slightly flattened polygon shape that is echoed in the positioning of the legs and draped fabric of a presumed dress. The figure draws the viewer into her contemplation, peace and confidence. An exceptional piece by Midener. Walter Midener...Category
