About the Item
Characteristic for Swedish artist, Björn Selder, are powerful, expressive sculptures, such as this piece, in heavy materials like bronze, iron, and stone. This unique piece shows that Selder was active as a sculptor and also as a graphic artist. He is represented with numerous monumental sculptures in public environments in Sweden.
Swedish sculptor Björn Selder is renowned for his distinctive style that seamlessly merges modern sensibilities with classical influences. His works are characterized by a harmonious blend of fluidity and precision, breathing life into static forms. Selder's sculptures - like this one - often depict the human figure, capturing the essence of movement, emotion, and introspection. One of the defining aspects of Selder's artistic expression is his preference for bronze as a sculpting material. Bronze offers him a unique combination of durability and malleability. Its enduring nature ensures that his creations stand the test of time, while its pliability allows him to mould intricate details and convey subtle nuances of form and expression. This versatile material accommodates the organic flow of Selder's style, enhancing the tactile and visual experience of his sculptures, enhanced by the green patina that naturally develops with time. Bronze holds a timeless allure due to its inherent strength, ability to retain intricate details, and the captivating patina that develops over time. This anthropomorphic piece takes advantage of its material fully, with the different hues and the surface of the bronze highlighting the versatile organic curves that define the surface.
Selder's present sculpture not only pays homage to the bronze sculpture tradition but also elevates it with a contemporary twist infusing it with his unique blend of abstraction and an unmistakeable contemporary flair. This work invites viewers to engage with the interplay of tradition and innovation, celebrating the enduring appeal of bronze as a medium for artistic expression.
