Vide Poche Soap Holder Swans Sculpture Shaped, in Silvered Metal Italy, 1970's

A set of fabulous aluminum two sided monumental sculptures by the renown British Sculptor Roy Rasmussen. They were identified for us by a relative of the artist as "Ida II and Maren". They are mounted to bases by posts that can be easily set into the ground where they can be mounted outdoors. As aluminum they will not rust and can withstand the weather. Both are signed and dated 71. They are 77 inches tall as pictured. The actual rectangular pieces are 66.75 inches tall. They are 22.5 inches wide and approximately 8 inches deep. In good condition with minor imperfections and age appropriate wear and tear. From the artist's Website: Born in London, England in 1919 of Anglo Danish parentage, he was the third generation of a family of craftsmen in metal. His grandfather had originally worked with metal in Denmark, but it was an uncle in the United States who had used aluminium to produce artistic sculptural forms attracting press coverage. This was the catalyst which led him to embark on studying the techniques of exploiting that medium. Early working life had exposed him to the crafting of sheet metal and different welding techniques through the car industry at Rolls Royce and then working later in the production of artificial limbs. Initially pursuing art of a representational nature with great success, his first work was completed and exhibited in 1954. A year later he presented two new works, which were then exhibited at the Aluminium Centenary Exhibition in Britain run by the Aluminium Development Association at the Royal Festival Hall and visited by H.R.H Prince Philip. Roy Rasmussen was to earn widespread recognition from this landmark beginning. A chance spell in Egypt as a young man (due to military service during the War) had exposed him to ideas and inspirations which would be nurtured and regenerated some decades later. The mysteries and splendors of Egyptian art were enveloped and symbolized into shapes and emblematic forms, and were to remain a powerful influence in many of his works, as he turned away from purely representational or figurative sculpture. From the early 196os his works were exhibited widely: from many London West End galleries to, internationally, exhibiting at shows such as the British Council at the German Industries Fair and the English Expressionists at the Galerie Creuze in Paris. He had in the late fifties joined the artist Lyall Watson who founded and opened the Woodstock Gallery, off of Bond Street in London, and worked closely with him as a director and artist of the gallery throughout its formative years. In 1967 he left the Woodstock Gallery and moved to the newly opened John Whibley Gallery on Cork Street in Mayfair where he remained as resident artist until it closed in 1977. His association with the Free Painters and Sculptors group, where he had been an early member since the 1950s, was further sealed in 1984 when he became director of their Loggia Gallery with its sculpture garden, in Buckingham Gate, Westminster. He exhibited there throughout the many years following. After his death in 2014 the Free Painters and Sculptors set up the Roy Rasmussen Award to be presented annually, 'in recognition of one of our founding members Roy Rasmussen, a revered sculptor and historian, whose years of dedication have inspired generations of FPS artists'.
