Detailed description
Wall object "Les Oiseaux", iron
Bosmetal art has been a Haitian tradition since the 1950s. A particularly beautiful - almost meditative - wall object is the iron tree with its lush foliage, fruits and birds cavorting in the branches. Diameter approx. 60 cm. Weight approx. 1 kg.
A plastic work of sculptural art made of wood, stone, ivory, bronze or other metals.
While sculptures from wood, ivory or stone are made directly from the block of material, in bronze casting a working model is prepared at first. Usually, it is made of clay or other easily mouldable materials.
The prime time of sculpture after the Greek and Roman antiquity was the Renaissance. Impressionism gave a new impulse to the sculptural arts. Contemporary artists such as Jorg Immendorf, Andora, and Markus Lupertz also enriched sculptures with outstanding works.
