A stunning pair of abstract wall sculptures (diptych) in the Mid-Century Modern style, dating back to the 1960s/1970s. These pieces represent the pinnacle of 20th-century artistic craftsmanship, characterized by fluid organic forms reminiscent of the biomorphic style of masters such as Alexandre Noll or the work of the great French and Scandinavian ateliers of the time.
Artwork Details:
Material: High-quality solid wood (likely mahogany or rosewood), featuring a deep flamed grain and a beautiful natural patina. Authenticity: One of the two pieces bears the artist's original signature and number ("9 Cy") on the back, guaranteeing the pair's authenticity and its studio-quality.
Craftsmanship: Monoxyle sculptures (carved from a single block), handcrafted with a smooth finish on the front surfaces and "raw" cuts at the ends, highlighting the materiality of the work.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition. They feature a small area of natural wear on the surface finish, attesting to their age and authenticity (easily smoothed with beeswax).
Dimensions and Weight: Height: 57 cm Width: 11 cm Weight: Over 1 kg (per pair)
Design Notes: These works are designed to be hung (original wooden hooks present on the back), creating a dynamic interplay of solids and voids.
Similar works in style, signature, and craftsmanship are held by the most prestigious international galleries, confirming their artistic and collectible value.
