About the Item

The sculpture rests on a natural stone base, which has been left with a raw finish that contrasts beautifully with the polished, intricate surfaces of the wood. This excellent contrast of materials is highly characteristic of Mid-Century Modernist sculptural motifs, highlighting the era's appreciation for both natural and organic elements. The interplay between the smooth, flowing lines of the wood and the rugged texture of the stone base creates a harmonious balance that is both visually and tactilely stimulating. Ideal for placement in a variety of settings, from a modern living room to a sophisticated office space, this sculpture not only serves as a striking decorative piece but also as a conversation starter. Its design captures the essence of Mid-Century Modernism, celebrating the beauty of natural materials and the elegance of organic forms. This hand-carved sculpture stands as a testament to timeless design principles and the enduring appeal of quality craftsmanship. In Excellent Vintage Condition.

Hand-Sculpted French Cubist Abstract Sculpture in Terracotta Signed "Philip"
Located in New York, NY
This sophisticated and alluring Mid-Century Modern Sculpture was realized in France circa 1950. Executed in terra cotta with a oil rubbed bronze colored glaze, the work presents an abstract and dynamic form- bristling with verve. An elongated form rises from an elliptical base offering both smooth and curvilinear aspects as well as faceted ones concluding in a curved tongue-like appendage with a pointed end. Additionally, there is what appears to be a lug or nut cantilevering from side of the piece, suggesting metamorphosis or some kind of animatronic influence. The amorphic form recalls the highly stylized renderings of tools by Lee Lozano...
