Zbyněk Sekal (1923 - 1998) FIGURE

This statue featuring sharp Cubist shapes presents a record of Sekal’s work while he lived in Vienna. His thorough work with sharp forms and gradual deformation of the central figure were common threads in Sekal’s work from the 1970s. His oeuvre demonstrates unusual depth and elaboration of the subject, presenting it to the viewer in exact intricate succession without revealing its core nature.
