About the Item

This wonderful Contemporary scultures are signed and numbered (the signature and the number of the specimen is inscribed on the hoof). Edition of 999 copies. In excellent conditions. Generally it is combined with the female decomposable nude. Berrical Miguel (Villanueva de Algaidas, 1933 - Antequera, 2006) Berrical Miguel was a Spanish sculptor and artist also known as the puzzle sculptor, due to the particularity of his sculptures. In the first half of the twentieth century the young Berrocal sought his artistic journey by asking himself: "How to awaken the public thanks to a sculpture?". From this reflection comes his personal artistic philosophy and his plastic language that can be summarized in 7 key concepts: scientific inspiration, empty space, disassembly, interactive aesthetics, techniques, multiple. His work was unified by an underlying search for beauty, borne from his study of mathematics and physics early in life. His sculptures, like this one, often consist of interlocking elements known as “component parts” that can be assembled into unique forms within a series of almost identical objects. Working in a wide range of sizes, Berrocal’s pieces could be sometimes very large in scale for public spaces, while other times small enough to be worn as jewelry. The Spanish artist spent much of his life in Verona, Italy because here he discovered a small foundry that allowed him to cast his complex and modular sculptures. His work has been exhibited widely across Europe, North and South America, and Japan
