Modern Abstract Sculptures
MODERN STYLE
The late 19th and early 20th centuries saw sweeping social change and major scientific advances — both of which contributed to a new aesthetic: modernism. Rejecting the rigidity of Victorian artistic conventions, modernists sought a new means of expression. References to the natural world and ornate classical embellishments gave way to the sleek simplicity of the Machine Age. Architect Philip Johnson characterized the hallmarks of modernism as “machine-like simplicity, smoothness or surface [and] avoidance of ornament.”
Early practitioners of modernist design include the De Stijl (“The Style”) group, founded in the Netherlands in 1917, and the Bauhaus School, founded two years later in Germany.
Followers of both groups produced sleek, spare designs — many of which became icons of daily life in the 20th century. The modernists rejected both natural and historical references and relied primarily on industrial materials such as metal, glass, plywood, and, later, plastics. While Bauhaus principals Marcel Breuer and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe created furniture from mass-produced, chrome-plated steel, American visionaries like Charles and Ray Eames worked in materials as novel as molded plywood and fiberglass. Today, Breuer’s Wassily chair, Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona chair — crafted with his romantic partner, designer Lilly Reich — and the Eames lounge chair are emblems of progressive design and vintage originals are prized cornerstones of collections.
It’s difficult to overstate the influence that modernism continues to wield over designers and architects — and equally difficult to overstate how revolutionary it was when it first appeared a century ago. But because modernist furniture designs are so simple, they can blend in seamlessly with just about any type of décor. Don’t overlook them.

21st Century Marble Abstract Sculpture TRILOGUE by Bernard Varvat from France
Located in Paris, FR
Mr. Bernard VARVAT has been exhibited in the the most famous collector's Gallery of Paris and is now available on 1stDibs in exclusivity.
Seek the Monograph: « Au fil du temps Bernard Varvat sculptor », Editions Lelivredart, 2020.
“My work is focused on the search for forms and two forms are at the base of this search, the triangle and the curve, playing their participation alone or in association.
The translation of my emotions leads to an abstract work.
Abstraction places us outside our habits of thought; we cannot appeal to our ability to recognize; we must only refer to our own experiences and allow ourselves to rediscover first sensations, emotions. To go further than the imitation of the forms we have in front of us is for me the true creation.
Our capacity to perceive is much broader than we think; but we must devote attention to it and allow ourselves the freedom to look at the work as it is, to accept what it gives us to think, according to our personal journey – this is a parenthesis of truth.”

During the ‘thirties in Paris, Salvador Dalí surrounded himself with a circle of friends involved in the application of art to varied disciplines, above and beyond the study of pure pictorial art. Jean-Michel Frank, a furniture maker and decorator of recognized prestige in the Paris of those years, was on very good terms with Dalí and together they worked on several ideas. The Bracelli lamp which we present here is a Classic design after Jean-Michel’s manner of designing and working, adopted by Dalí for his house at Portlligat. Amongst Dalí ’s specific furnishing projects, and constituting another for his curriculum vitae as a designer, may be counted the garden furnishings...
