Pair of Gilt Bronze Swans by Jack Zajac — Signed & Numbered 18/95, Limited Edition Mid-Century Modern Sculptures
Short highlights
Artist: Jack Zajac (b. 1929) — prominent West Coast modernist
Medium: Gilt bronze on black acrylic plinths
Edition: Signed & numbered 18/95 (limited edition)
A distinguished pair of gilt bronze swans by Jack Zajac, offered as a single lot. These refined, abstracted bird forms combine Zajac’s signature organic abstraction with a luminous gilt finish and contemporary presentation on black acrylic plinths. The pair is signed and numbered 18/95, confirming limited-edition authenticity — a key search and purchase driver for serious collectors of postwar and contemporary American sculpture.
Why this pair is significant: Jack Zajac is widely represented in major public collections and is an important figure in mid-20th century West Coast modernism. These sculptures demonstrate the artist’s ability to translate natural motifs into elegantly simplified bronze forms that read equally well in residential interiors, corporate collections, and museum-level displays.
