About the Item

Striking modernist mixed-media sculpture in vibrant red enamel over aluminum. The elongated sarcophagus form is elevated on a contrasting black base, while the surface is intricately worked with layered geometric and organic motifs that create depth, movement, and visual intensity. A commanding decorative statement piece, signed by the artist. "Paul Tamanian is an intrepid experimenter, beginning as a ceramist; he now works exclusively with metals. Always unique in his range of styles, his pieces demonstrate his evolution as an artist." Please confirm pickup location (Brooklyn or New Jersey) with seller.
