About the Item

Brutalist Handcrafted Wall Sculpture of a Rooster, Europe, circa 1960s–1970s A striking Brutalist wall sculpture depicting a rooster, handcrafted in forged and welded metal with an expressive polychrome finish. The surface is richly textured with bold, organic forms and enhanced by vibrant tones of red, yellow, blue and green, giving the piece a strong decorative presence. This sculptural wall art reflects the mid-century Brutalist aesthetic, where raw welding techniques and vivid patination became central elements of design. Comparable in spirit to the works of Marcello Fantoni in Italy or Curtis Jere in the United States, this rooster combines artisanal craftsmanship with an almost painterly use of color and texture. Dimensions: Height 82 cm (32.3 in), Width 40 cm (15.7 in), Depth 17 cm (6.7 in) Period: circa 1960s–1970s Style: Brutalist, Mid-Century Modern Origin: Europe (likely Italy or France) Condition: Good vintage condition, with age-related wear, surface patina and minor oxidation consistent with material and age. The colors remain vivid and the sculpture retains a strong visual impact. This unique wall-mounted sculpture would make a powerful addition to a modernist interior, adding both color and sculptural dimension.
