ABOUT PRODUCTID 19451
This pair of bronze figurative sculptures from the 1980s presents elongated, geometric human forms standing atop substantial, pyramid-shaped bases. The bronze used in their construction displays a deep, dark tone highlighted by warm, subtle golden nuances, with a matte to softly satin sheen. Especially on the broad, angled surfaces of the bases, one finds gentle transitions of lighter and darker hues and a delicate patina—an authentic result of bronze ageing gracefully over time. The upper sections of the figures are finished with distinctly tactile, handcrafted textures evoking a Brutalist aesthetic, while the bases are smoother but feature natural mottling and irregular colorations. The figures and bases are cast in one piece, making the connection seamless and integral, with no visible joins or secondary elements. No damage or major wear is detectable—the pair remains in excellent condition, bearing only minor marks of age that enhance their vintage authenticity.These sculptures resonate with the spirit of the 1980s—a period when the raw expression of material emerged as a counterpoint to the decorative excesses of previous decades. Each bronze figure, marked by understated simplicity, recalls Modernist fascination with the human archetype: arched arms and abstracted heads signal a focus on essential form, while the pyramid bases suggest stability and an accumulation of grounded energy. The material itself offers its own testimony; patina and subtle irregularities narrate the silent passage of time.The pair may be juxtaposed with minimalist interiors, where their sculptural lines and interplay of shadows stand out, or in eclectic arrangements as a pronounced accent among varied textures and materials. They are well suited for display on a low console or solid wood sideboard, and pair harmoniously with glass or cooler metals to highlight the warmth of the bronze. Due to their universal form
