About the Item
This mid-century modern plaster sculpture, finished in silver, depicts two abstracted figures in an intimate embrace. The smooth, faceless forms and flowing lines capture both tenderness and strength, emphasizing movement and emotional unity over literal realism. The figures’ interlocking shapes and draped geometry evoke a timeless sense of connection — a poetic representation of love distilled to its purest form.
Resting on a sculpted black base, this piece combines sensual curvature with a futuristic metallic sheen, reminiscent of the stylized minimalism seen in 1970s Italian and American modernist sculpture.
Condition
Excellent vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age and material. The metallic silver finish retains its luster and depth, highlighting the sculptural contours beautifully.
Collector’s Note
This work stands as both a decorative statement and an evocative piece of emotional modernism. Its universal subject and harmonious form make it ideal for both contemporary and mid-century interiors.

Dancing Sculpture in Resin in the Style of Umberto Boccioni
Located in Pasadena, CA
Sculpture is at its most essential as a physical, tactile medium, and needs to be touched to be fully experienced. Creating a handmade resin sculpture is an intricate process that requires the mastery of various skills and techniques.
This dancing sculpture, in gun metal patina finish resin, stands on its wooden base, featuring intricate details, height, singular twists, interstices, and curves, culminating in an energetic union that transforms the static and individual into a dynamic couple.
As you let your hands wander, with closed eyes, you can sense fluidity in their movements, brought to life by soft, rounded lines. Every gesture and sweep emits a unique emotion, as if the two dancers were sharing a whispered conversation, inviting the viewer to witness their intimate exchange.

Bronze Sculpture of Two Lovers by Virgilio Guidi, 1970s
By Virgilio Guidi
Located in Milano, MI
Bronze sculpture realized by Virgilio Guidi in the 1970s, representing two lovers.
The sculpture is in very good conditions, the wood base has some fades and minor tracks of time.
Virgilio Guidi (Rome, April 4, 1891 - Venice, January 7, 1984) was an Italian painter, poet and essayist. The one who has been called the poet of light has followed complex but coherent research paths, within a figuration that sometimes reaches the limit of abstraction. In short, Guidi affirms himself as an undisputed protagonist of the Italian artistic life. Particularly significant was the participation in the exhibition "Ten artists of the Italian twentieth century", set up by Margherita Sarfatti...
