About the Item
This impressive bronze sculpture was made by the Belgian artist Roland Monteyne (1932-1993).
He describes his work as flashes of a ‘different’ consciousness.
It stands on a stone base and it will be an great eye catcher in you interior. It is a real conversation piece.
quotes:
Clear female forms appear in several images. They are an unambiguous reference to the female body and here, after all, concrete reality comes into play. The eroticism occupies an important place in your work?
‘The most formidable unconscious motive is indeed eroticism, and its manifestations, however unexpected and obsessional, I take for what they are, without the slightest moral consideration. People have told beautiful nonsense about the meaning of eroticism in my work, interpreting it, e.g., in the perspective of the cosmic relationship yin-yang, or as primal signs of life, and you name it. Is it our western frustrated and hypocritical civilization that forbids us to see that the sacredness of eroticism should be sought only in eroticism itself, and not in some obtuse sublimation? When will we realize that erotic desire gives out to the marvelous? Clearly this purely erotic rapture emerges in my work; an image like “if the sculpture were a female body” (1971) speaks for itself.’ (Roland Monteyne)
‘If you ask me now why, precisely, I sculpt, I must answer that this is the language I happen to use best. Often I envy writers and poets, but I suspect this manifestation of powerlessness is equally frequent in reverse. Make me laugh when the poetry, the painting, the image calms you down or reconciles you to whatever. I call that kind of aesthetic a mean tranquilizer. I expect a work of art to intrigue me, to disturb me, to wake me up; it has to be a gunshot along my earshot.’ (Roland Monteyne)

Whimsical Bronze Sculpture by Francisco del Toro, Mexico, 1992
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Expressive and evocative bronze sculpture by Francisco del Toro (Mexican, Guerrero, 20th century), signed Del Toro ’92. This one-of-a-kind piece showcases del Toro’s mastery in merging organic abstraction with emotional figuration, embodying both movement and introspection through its fluid, surreal form.
The elongated figure, perched on a solid stone base, reveals a captivating dialogue between smooth, polished surfaces and rugged, textured elements — a hallmark of del Toro’s sculptural language. The patinated bronze transitions in tone from deep forest green to earthy bronze, emphasizing the interplay between form, texture, and light.
Del Toro’s work often explores the human spirit’s resilience and transformation, with this particular sculpture exuding both strength and vulnerability. The head, seemingly emerging from raw material, evokes a timeless and almost mythological presence, while the sensuous curvature of the body connects to themes of fertility and creation found in Mexican modernist sculpture.
An exceptional example of Mexican contemporary bronze art, ideal for collectors of Latin American sculpture...
