WALL ART / SCONCE. HUGE DIMENSIONS: 58″ wide by 21″ tall! Offered is a simply spectacular Brutalist wall art sconce! This enormous work measures 58″ across and 21″ tall. It is signed and dated on the back. Created in 1970, this work is a great example of “south of the border” modernist commissioned works. In the mid sixties, Modernism in Mexico took bloom. Modernist universities, public sculptures and more could be found in Mexico City and other well-to-do regions. What emerged for US cities close to the border was a place to have great art created on commission at a sizable savings. In Scottsdale, Arizona, where the wealthy from around the world came to retire, a cottage industry blossomed as home builders and interior decorators worked with Mexican artisans on projects that would be cost prohibitive if done in the US. Creating modernist monuments for plush custom homes! This wall art is sensational! The exposed and raw metal elements are done with a unique “halo” effect and plays with the light depending upon the angle which it is viewed! The natural aging is phenomenal and the piece looks almost four centuries old in lieu of a more modest 50 years! A dramatic and textural wonderland for the eyes! This masterpiece’s provenance is just as sweet as the art! Originating from a Scottsdale estate a stone’s throw from Frank Lloyd Wrights Taliesin West. An estate that has some of the most sensational custom, modernist artifacts we’ve seen! A true mid century time warp with mid century treasures in all directions! This one of a kind piece is a “interior maker” and perfect for demanding decorators who want the very best for a special client! Beautiful Brutalist wall art would be an exemplary addition to your New York penthouse, Beverly Hills hideaway or West Palm Beach estate!
