Sculptural Crucifixion by the Catalan Artist Xavier Ruscallleda

About the Item

A sculptural interpretation of the Crucifixion by the Catalan artist Xavier Ruscallleda (1944 - 2008). Born in Sant Feliu de Guixols he went to study art at Sant Jordi School of Fine Art in Barcelona. He left to focus on informalism and abstraction in painting during the fifties and sixties. However, he also experimented with sculpture. In this case he created an abstract interpretation of the Christian principle symbol of the Crucifixion. The sculpture is made out of raw iron metal whereby he has used traditional blacksmith methods of smithing and forging to shape the metal. The metal has then been oxide to generate this green patina effect. The base of the object is placed with a rough black rock which holds it in place and allows it to retain its balance. It is an interesting object.
