Commanding in both presence and artistry, this rare 1970s bronze sculpture by Spero Anargyros—titled “Woman with Canon”—is a striking example of Brutalist form and mid-century modern abstraction.
Sculpted in solid bronze, the piece showcases Anargyros’ signature raw, textured surface, juxtaposed with the fluidity of the figure’s stance. The composition is both powerful and enigmatic, embodying the artist’s fascination with movement, strength, and form.
signed and dated 1970. By the classically trained Bay Area sculptor Spero Anargyros, whose bronze bust of Mayor George Moscone stands in San Franciscos' City Hall. See less
