Robert Michiels (1933), iron sculpture An iron sculpture in the shape of an animal head raised on a round base, made by Robert Michiels, Belgium, signed. In 1966 Robert received the Jeune Sculpture Belgium prize, the following year the Hainaut Prize and in 1969 first prizes at the Paris Biennale and the Antwerp Biennale Middelheim. Robert Michiels works with industrial components and materials. He uses them to build human characters, animals or strange insects, often with a touch of surrealism and humour. Because the material comes from our society, the works are reminiscent of New Realism and his sculptures are often described with the term existentialism.

Modular Abstract Iron Sculpture by Torsten Johansson, Denmark, 1960s

By Torsten Johansson

Located in Stockholm, SE

This iron sculpture was designed in Denmark during the 1960s by Torsten Johansson and reflects his distinctive approach to structure and modular composition. Built from intersecting rectilinear elements organised around a central vertical support, the work achieves a carefully calibrated balance in which mass, rhythm, and proportion are held in deliberate tension. The dark, patinated iron surface is subtly punctuated by gold-toned accents, drawing attention to the internal geometry and reinforcing the sculptural dialogue between weight and precision. Alongside his sculptural practice, Johansson was also active as a furniture designer, notably collaborating with the Swedish manufacturer AB Formträ, where he created the celebrated “Honeycomb” wine rack...
