Mid-Century Modern Brutalist Compressed Metal Pipe Sculpture

About the Item

This Mid-Century Modern metal sculpture has no artist's signature, but it believed to have been made in Canada in circa 1965. The sculpture is crafted from a length of steel pipe that has been split and curled at the top and flared at the base. The sides have a series of cuts around the upper perimeter and the entire piece has been compressed resulting in an interesting configuration of undulating rounded forms. The sculpture was not treated and the original patina has developed through age. This sculpture was acquired from the estate of an artist and professor of art at the University of Toronto, in Ontario Canada until the late 1970s and occupied a prominent place in her home.
