Jonathan SELIGER (1955) Lacquered Bronze Sculpture "Gucci" Number 4 of 5

About the Item

Jonathan SELIGER (1955) lacquered bronze sculpture "Gucci" braided metal rope, signed and numbered under the base, A 72 x 91 x 31cm (some scratches) Jonathan Seliger makes meticulous reproductions/ interpretations of mass produced objects and containers for everyday consumables. Here, having departed from his signature painted canvas constructions to explore aluminum, bronze and stainless steel fabrications which are sprayed with automotive enamels, he takes the once popular slogan “Super Size It” to the extreme presenting larger-than-life versions of a milk carton and a Gucci bag, both measuring well over eight feet tall, and an unfolded wall-mounted Chinese take-out container. Seliger roots his visual vocabulary in contemporary and 20th Century art historical precedents; combining ideas about scale, seriality, and fabrication, prevalent in minimalism, together with the content of pop art, and an attention to detail and surface quality on par with west coast finish fetish practitioners. His use of language, the naming of artworks and show titles for example, adds still other dimensions to the work, an element of humor or social critique.
