About the Item

This Ceramic Bison by Otto Keramik is a striking and unique piece of ceramic art that epitomizes the design aesthetics of the era. Created by the renowned German pottery studio Otto Keramik, this sculpture showcases the boldness and creativity that defined the Modernist movement of the 1980s. The bison sculpture is crafted from high-quality ceramic, which provides a solid and substantial base for the artwork. The use of ceramic allows the application of vibrant yellow and black glaze, which contribute to its distinctive appearance. The sculpture's dominant color is a vibrant yellow, which was a favored hue in many Modernist designs. This bold shade adds a sense of energy and dynamism to the piece, making it a visually striking focal point. The glaze is applied in a way that creates variations in tone and texture, adding depth and visual interest to the sculpture. The bison itself is designed with a modernist sensibility, featuring simplified and geometric forms. The lines are clean and streamlined, emphasizing the sculptural qualities of the piece. A bison by Otto Keramik is not just a decorative item, It represents a departure from traditional ceramic styles and embraces a more abstract and expressive approach. It's in very good condition overall.
