About the Item
This sculpture presents a dynamic and emotive scene, likely crafted in bronze, depicting three figures interacting with a horse in a dramatic, fragmented style. The composition evokes movement and tension—one figure appears to wrestle or restrain the horse, while another seems to be falling or has been thrown to the ground. A long, thin rod diagonally intersects the piece, adding a structural and narrative element to the scene.
The textured, rough-hewn surface and partially fragmented forms reflect a Brutalist influence, emphasizing raw materiality and an unfinished aesthetic. This work could represent themes of struggle, control, or allegory, commonly seen in Max DeMoss’ sculptures, which often explore classical and biblical subjects through abstraction and figurative forms. The piece's emotional depth and physical energy make it a compelling example of DeMoss' artistic language.
Signed and dated by Artist Max S DeMoss 1987
Max DeMoss, a Southern California native with an MFA from Claremont Graduate School, draws inspiration from his Greek heritage and early exposure to Classical art. His work reflects a deep appreciation for the Classical aesthetic, exploring themes of fragmentation and wholeness through human and animal figures, Biblical allegory, and abstract forms.
DeMoss’ sculptures have been exhibited across the U.S. and are part of collections nationally and internationally. Renowned for creating art for sacred and public spaces, his acclaimed work at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles highlights his influence.
