About the Item

Barry Bridgwood (American, b. 1957) – CO² (1984), enamel on wood, signed and dated verso in an artist-modified frame This compelling 1984 artwork by American artist Barry Bridgwood showcases his innovative approach to industrial materials and environmental themes. Crafted with enamel on wood, the piece features engraved and carved elements that reveal contrasting underlayers, creating a dynamic interplay of texture and color. The prominent CO² inscription, integrated with abstract plant-like forms, reflects a commentary on industrialization and its environmental impact.​ The artwork is presented in a vintage embossed frame, which Bridgwood has artistically modified by applying the same green enamel, blurring the lines between the artwork and its presentation. This cohesive treatment enhances the piece's tactile and visual appeal.​ Given the unique characteristics and historical context of "CO²," it holds significant value for collectors interested in industrial and environmental art themes. Dimensions: 12.25"h x 10.25"w (sight) 17.25"h x 15.5" (framed) Condition: Good, with intentional surface texture and minor wear consistent with age​. Shows well. Ready to hang. Provenance: This piece comes from a private collection and exemplifies Bridgwood's exploration of industrial themes during the 1980s.​ His works have sold at Sotheby's, a 1993 oil on canvas titled "Promontory" and displayed at a MoMA exhibition, "Limbo", Jan 22-Mar 18, 1984
