Gunnar Nylund's 1960s Rörstrand Brutalistic Parrot Chamotte Sculpture, Rörstrand

About the Item

This bird is created by the prominent artist Gunnar Nylund during the 1960s. Manufactured by Rörstrand, the renowned ceramic company in Sweden, the sculpture carries with it the legacy of Scandinavian design and craftsmanship. It depicts a suspicious parrot, whose expression and body language seem to convey a sense of restraint and vigilance. Gunnar Nylund's ability to create characters and emotions through his art is evident in this sculpture, where every angle and detail reveals a new aspect of the parrot's personality. The rough and robust appearance of the sculpture, characteristic of brutalist art, is enhanced by the use of chamotte, a coarse-grained ceramic mass, which gives the work a unique texture and visual weight. Originating from 1960s Sweden, this sculpture carries with it a historical and cultural significance, reflecting both the artistic movements of the time and Nylund's own influence within the ceramics world. With its bold presence and suggestive character, this suspicious parrot becomes a topic of conversation and a fascinating ornament for anyone who appreciates the depth and diversity of art
