Description from the seller
Pendant HEAD created by the Spanish sculptor MIGUEL ORTIZ BERROCAL GOLD AND BRONZE
Villanueva de Algaidas, September 28, 1933 – Antequera, May 31, 2006, Spain. He was a Spanish sculptor and artist also known as the sculptor of puzzles, due to the peculiarities of his sculptures. He is best known for his puzzle sculptures, which can be disassembled into many abstract pieces. These works are also known for the miniature artworks and jewelry incorporated into or concealed within them, and the fact that some of the sculptures can be reassembled or reconfigured into different arrangements. Berrocal’s sculptures span a wide range of physical sizes from monumental outdoor public works, to intricate puzzle sculptures small enough to be worn as pendants, bracelets, or other body ornamentation. From 1967 to 2004, Berrocal worked in Verona, Italy, and in nearby Negrar, where he worked closely with sculptural foundries to produce his art. His work was exhibited widely throughout Europe and also in North and South America and Japan. In 2004 he returned to his birthplace in Spain, remaining artistically active until his sudden death in 2006. The Berrocal Sculpture Foundation (Fundación Escultor Berrocal) continues to preserve and promote his artwork and legacy, from its headquarters in his hometown of Villanueva de Algaidas in Spain.
Seller's Story
Passionate and watch dealer for at least 30 years, it was born as a passion and became a profession that fascinates me time after time, a careful frequenter of international markets and an attentive researcher of vintage and modern watches. I have also been an official seller of brands such as Richard Mille, Breitling, Zenith, Hublot, Franck Muller and others. I put my experience at the service of those who buy our watches and I guarantee a careful check of both running and waterproofing and accompanied by descriptive tests on the controls of the same before being sold.
