Wow! Brutalist Abstract Wall Art Sculpture! MID Century Modern Atomic Vtg 1960s
ABSTRACT BRUTALIST WALL SCULPTURE! BLEND OF POLYSTYRENE & METAL! DIMENSIONS: APPROXIMATELY 20″ x 6-1/2″ This is a highly coveted example of sixties Brutalist art! Here is a work that combines a very rare blend of polystyrene injection molded with metal accents. The first mold casts the incredible shapes and textures and then it is cast again – this time in a mold which applies some metal to the finishes of many of the sculpted forms! The result is a completely unique look that captured the appearance of direct metal work, but with a greater level of control to turn out exactly the appearance desired! This type of piece couldn’t easily be produced today, or back then, because it required expensive injection molding equipment and handcrafting the finished product. It’s in a class of it’s own and that’s why it is revered and coveted by knowledgeable mid century art collectors! It bridges the handcrafting world with the coming world of machine-made. An iconic example of mid century art & design! The visual, textural appeal of this piece is sensational! This would make a wonderful addition to your NY penthouse, Palm Springs atomic ranch or UK summer home! A Decorating Tour de Force For Your Brilliant Interiors! The item “WOW!
