This is a stunning, unique nude figure paper wall sculpture by Demetri Gassoumis (American, 1933-2015) that adds drama to any room and is a conversation piece at any gathering.
It is created by layers of thick, corrugated while paper floating over a whiter background and cut to cast shadows, creating the illusion of shading and depth.
Rough edges add additional texture.
It is mounted in a beautiful, custom Arquati wood and gold frame under glass.
This enhances the drama of the piece and adds value in its own right.
It's signed Gassoumis and dated 1983 in the upper left, edition 148/200.

The right edge has slipped out from under the frame but a professional could easily fix that. (I never bothered because I like the look of it as is.) The backing paper on the rear side of the frame has tears, but they don't threaten the piece and so, here too, I never bothered fixing it, but it can be easily remedied. The frame has some very minor imperfections, mostly on the sides, not the front. less
