About the Item
This solid wood sculpture, commissioned by the city of The Hague, evokes architecture with its stacked geometric blocks reminiscent of a model for an apartment building. Created in the 1980s, the work reflects the influence of Constructivism and De Stijl, movements known for their stark forms, right angles, and intersecting lines. De Stijl practitioners like Gerrit Rietveld drew heavily from architecture and urban planning, seeking to integrate art into everyday structures. Similarly, post-war Dutch Constructivists such as Bob Bonies, Peter Struycken, Jan Schoonhoven, Ad Dekkers, and Joost Baljeu aimed to build a new society through art’s fusion with architecture and design. Echoing the minimalist and abstract principles of artists like Carl Andre this sculpture emphasizes line, plane, form, and color as autonomous forces of expression, embodying a shared vision of modernist abstraction.

Material: Solid wood
Dimension: 58 x 19.5 x 14.5 cm
This sculptural piece speaks to collectors of mid-century modern, minimalist, and brutalist design, while resonating with admirers of architectural art, abstract sculpture, and geometric modernism. Great with works by Pierre Jeanneret, Gio Ponti, Jean Prouvé, Charlotte Perriand, Le Corbusier, Josef Albers, Donald Judd, Isamu Noguchi, Carl Andre, Sol LeWitt, and Anni Albers. Evoking De Stijl and Constructivist movements, the work shares formal affinities with designers like Gerrit Rietveld, Ad Dekkers, Jan Schoonhoven, and Joost Baljeu. It pairs beautifully with Scandinavian modern furniture by Finn Juhl, Arne Jacobsen, or Hans Wegner, and fits interiors that feature Eames, Knoll, Cassina, or Fritz Hansen pieces.
