Fred Brouard
Medium: Polished aluminum, stone
Dimensions: 47 in high x 23.75 in wide x 10.25 in deep
This piece in polished aluminum, elevated on a rectangular, black pedestal, by Fred Brouard, illustrious and groundbreaking French sculpture and furniture maker of the mid-to-late twentieth century, is singular and remarkable for its size and dynamism.
Brouard’s work confirmed his versatility as a sculptor with his diverse use of materials and variances in scale (from the most delicate of jewelry to large, elegant furnishings); but, he was also a master of juxtaposition, evoking (often with the same piece) both the impermanence and motion of nature and the industrial, urban world which was accelerating rapidly around him.
Unique piece.
