Monumental Marble Garden Sculpture by Arturo DiModica
About the Item
Born in Sicily in 1941, Arturo DiModica is best known for installing his bronze sculpture "Charging Bull" near the New York Stock Exchange in lower Manhattan in 1989 at his own expense. Initially impounded by police, the sculpture was permanently installed in its original spot as a result of public outcry at its removal. He resides in New York City.
A large figurative marble sculpture by Arturo DiModica (b. Sicily, 1941). This sculpture has the abstract form of two figures embraced. The marble is finished roughly with some visible carving marks. This sculpture is suitable for outdoor display. The white Carerra marble and rustic finish combined with the organic form give this sculpture a rough sensuality and considerable presence.
