AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Centerpiece sculpture by artist David Marshall, made in cast aluminum with the application of gilded brass. The piece features organic and asymmetric forms inspired by Brutalism, with an interesting contrast between the matte silvery finish and the warm patina of brass.

Characteristic design of the 70s–80s, ideal both as a decorative element and as a functional piece.

Centerpiece sculpture signed by the artist David Marshall, made in cast aluminum with the application of brass. The piece presents a composition characteristic of the Brutalist language developed by the author in the 1970s and 1980s.

The contrast between the matte surface of the aluminum and the warmth of the golden brass responds to an artisanal sand-casting process, a technique common in its production, which endows each piece with a unique and unrepeatable texture. The slight irregularities and the natural patina are intrinsic to its aesthetic and sculptural value.

Beyond its functionality as a centerpiece, it is conceived as an artistic object within contemporary Spanish design.

A work of great size and weight
