An exceptional and visually striking original mid-century modern abstract figural tabletop sculpture by By Marilyn Kuksht. Standing just over 13 inches tall, this piece beautifully embodies the geometric minimalism of the 20th-century Cubist and Brutalist avant-garde movements, sharing deep design sensibilities with the works of masters like Alberto Giacometti and Lynn Chadwick. The sculpture features an extreme abstraction of the human form, utilizing an elongated diamond-shaped torso that balances flawlessly with a subtle, kinetic forward lean on a weighted rectangular plinth. The apex is crowned by a flat, architectural rectangular block representing a stylized head or hat.
Executed with premium studio craftsmanship, the underlying metal is confirmed to be solid bronze, coated in a rich, multi-toned oxidized charcoal and dark iron patina. The raw, hands-on construction is emphasized by a textured weld point at the neck junction and file markings across the bottom. The underside of the plinth features the artist's original hand-scribed edition number 3/25, verifying it as an exceptionally rare, investment-grade studio bronze cast from a strict limited run of only 25 pieces worldwide.
