About the Item
A monumental deconstructed ceramic male torso, signed by artist, 20th century. In tones of burnt pêche, apricot, and sienna, this stunning sculpture epitomizes cubism in three dimensional form, with its jutting angles and compartmentalized structure. Rarely have we seen Picasso’s cubist legacy carried on so eloquently. And yet, implicitly of course, we are inarguably reminded of the enduring busts and torsos of neoclassicism, at once physically familiar and eerily - headlessly - alienating, timeless in their stone and clay and yet a reminder of our mortality in their ruins. Little is known of the artist, who signed his work «KV», and yet it is clear this artwork is truly the work of a masterful ceramist and sculptor. Pick up in central west Los Angeles or we do ship worldwide.

Hand-Sculpted French Cubist Abstract Sculpture in Terracotta Signed "Philip"
Located in New York, NY
This sophisticated and alluring Mid-Century Modern Sculpture was realized in France circa 1950. Executed in terra cotta with a oil rubbed bronze colored glaze, the work presents an abstract and dynamic form- bristling with verve. An elongated form rises from an elliptical base offering both smooth and curvilinear aspects as well as faceted ones concluding in a curved tongue-like appendage with a pointed end. Additionally, there is what appears to be a lug or nut cantilevering from side of the piece, suggesting metamorphosis or some kind of animatronic influence. The amorphic form recalls the highly stylized renderings of tools by Lee Lozano...
