German Brutalist Plaster Sculpture out of 2 Parts by Jens Schleede, 1970

About the Item

Jens Schleede's German Brutalist plaster sculpture from 1970 is a compelling example of the movement's raw, architectural aesthetic. Composed of two distinct parts, the sculpture embodies a sense of fragmented unity. The plaster medium, intentionally left unrefined, showcases the inherent texture and imperfections of the material, reflecting Brutalism's rejection of idealized forms. Its geometric shapes and sharp angles evoke a sense of weight and monumentality, hinting at industrial structures and urban landscapes. The stark contrast between the two pieces creates a visual tension, inviting viewers to contemplate the relationship between opposing forces. This sculpture is a powerful testament to Schleede's artistic vision and the enduring impact of Brutalist principles. A unique piece which is a great eye-catcher for your antique, modern, space age or mid-century interior. If you have any more questions we are very happy to help and send you more details, photos, videos, a shipping quote or information. All pieces are looked after in our own restoration workshop. We also can do new upholstery cover or other special requests. Please ask.
