About the Item

sculpture carved from a single solid piece of wood by Danish artist Otto Baagøe Nielsen, created in 2000. The piece exemplifies Nielsen’s mastery of form — a harmonious balance between organic movement and precise craftsmanship, rendered with a deep respect for the natural qualities of the wood. Signed and dated “Baagøe Nielsen 00” on the side. Baagøe Nielsen was an important figure in Danish modern art and a founding member of the artist group Spiralen, which emerged in the mid-20th century as a collective dedicated to exploring modernist abstraction and material experimentation. His work often bridges fine art and design, reflecting the postwar Scandinavian pursuit of sculptural clarity and truth to materials. This piece comes directly from the artist’s family, acquired from his son, and has never before been offered for sale
