“LarA 011” is a unique architectural sculpture from the Antropotectura series by Spanish artist José Perozo. Cast in black pigmented cement, this head-and-shoulders bust presents a fusion of the human figure with modular architectural volumes. The vertical extension of block-like forms emerges from the cranial area, transforming the head into a structural topography. This hybrid configuration invites reflection on the human body as both inhabited and inhabiting — a site of memory, construction, and symbolic permanence. The formal arrangement of the sculpture is symmetrical but discontinuous, with geometric protrusions interrupting the organic contours of the face. These elements suggest urban formations, perhaps ruins or unfinished constructions, anchored to the surface of the skin. This layered structure evokes the aesthetic of posthuman figuration and resonates with speculative architectural languages often seen in anime environments — particularly those of Studio Ghibli or early cybernetic landscapes. The matte black surface finish accentuates the raw tactility of the material. Subtle tonal variations, occasional air pockets, and manual traces from the casting process are preserved, underscoring the artist’s interest in the sculptural language of construction materials. These choices align with the conceptual underpinning of Antropotectura, a term coined by Perozo to describe his ongoing investigation into the convergence of embodiment and architecture. About the Artist: José Perozo (Vigo, 1978) is a Spanish sculptor with a background in Scenic Construction and Fine Arts. His practice explores how built structures can be inscribed onto the human form, merging classical figuration with a contemporary sculptural grammar. The LarA series has been exhibited in institutional and independent contexts and is currently represented by Casa das Peritas. About Casa das Peritas: This work is presented by Casa das Peritas, an independent art space located in Galicia’s Atlantic coast, working with international collectors, designers, and institutions.

Antique Bronze Dog Portrait of a Cavalier King Charles "Thigley" French School (possibly Franck Burty Haviland) Lost wax bronze casting Circa 1910 5 7/8 x 9 x 3 1/4 A sophisticated bronze casting of a Cavalier King Charles spaniel made in lost wax casting (cire perdue) from the beginning of the 20th century by Valsuani Foundry. This an unusual bronze approached in its aesthetic that’s reminiscent of the work of great animal sculptors of the second half of the 19th century except in this presentation which is more avant-garde for the time with a much looser, more impressionistic execution. The patina is a superb bronze color, brown and slightly greenish, going in places towards a more antique green. The attitude of the dog is extremely well and sensitively rendered with the placement of material unlike the renderings of a bronze by Barye...

“Rotation” is a captivating cast sculpture by renowned American artist Eric James Bransby (1916–2020), depicting six ballet dancers gracefully moving in unison, accompanied by a flying cupid above to the right.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the sculpture measures 12 ¾ x 25 ¼ x ½ inches, making it a visually dynamic piece ideal for display in a private collection, gallery, or sophisticated interior setting. Its combination of classical inspiration and modern sensibility exemplifies Bransby’s mastery of form and movement. Provenance: Estate of the artist, Eric Bransby. About Eric James Bransby (1916–2020): Born in New York, Bransby was a multifaceted artist known for his work as a muralist, painter, illustrator, and educator. He studied at the Colorado Springs Fine Art Center under masters such as Thomas Hart Benton, Jean Charlot, Boardman Robinson, and Josef Albers, as well as at the Yale School of Fine Art. Bransby created notable murals including the Rockhurst Library Triptych at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, and works at Brigham Young University, the Air Force Academy, Colorado College, and various military institutions. He also served as an associate professor of art, leaving a lasting influence on generations of artists. A long-time resident of Colorado Springs and member of the National Society of Mural Painters, Bransby received a doctorate of humane letters from the University of Colorado (1997) and a lifetime achievement medal from Colorado College (1998). His work has been exhibited at major institutions including the Denver Art Museum, Library of Congress, Joslyn Art Museum, and the Association of American Art, and is held in collections at Princeton University, Brigham Young University, Nelson Gallery, Colorado College, and more. “Rotation” exemplifies Bransby’s enduring fascination with movement, grace, and the human form, making it an essential acquisition for collectors of 20th-century American sculpture, dance-inspired art, or fine art from the Colorado School of Muralists. ©David Cook Galleries...
