"Busto in legno. Arte povera. Scuola romana."
Bust of a young girl , follower of Arte Povera artistic movement, Italy, around 1970.Sculpture in fir wood. Italy.
Arte Povera movement favored deliberately "raw" materials to have a strong expressiveness.
The wood of the sculpture is worked in a raw and geometric way.
The head of the young woman has her eyes closed, hinting at the dreamlike state of the dreamlike poetry of this sculpted image.
Interesting combination of the roughness of the material, the wood fibers and the lyricism of the girl's facial expression, long neck.
This expressive image plays with Naive and sophistication.
