About the Item

System Red-Grey is a unique small size contemporary modern cube sculpture by the famous Dutch artist couple Nel Haringa and Fred Olijve in which they explore the effects of opposite compositions in red, grey and transparent. Signature characteristics of this work are the opaque white center elements partitioning the virtual eight chambers containing the red, grey and transparent systems. The cube sculpture consists of a few dozen hand cut hand polished plexiglas elements carefully stacked together inside a plexiglas housing. This results in a breathtaking one-of-a-kind sculptural construction with a unique and unmistakable identity. It is authenticated by a characteristic signature on the bottom of the sculpture and comes with a limited edition full colour monograph of the artists. Nel Haringa (1941) and Fred Olijve (1937) graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Amsterdam in 1966 and then went on to study and graduate in 1967 from the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, Poland. Nel and Fred have been working together as the artist duo Haringa + Olijve since 1969 and continue to do so until this moment. Around the mid-Fifties, a new generation of artists emerged in The Netherlands, adding a new chapter to the development of abstract geometric art. Artists such as Joost Baljeu, Bob Bonies, Ad Dekkers and Peter Struycken are of real significance in this field, on a national as well as on an international level. Nel Haringa and Fred Olijve are also part of this remarkable chapter in the history of Dutch art. Not only because of their oeuvre but also because of their personal ties with Joost Baljeu and Bob Bonies. Their contribution bridges the gap between the historical roots of abstract art and the present. The essence of the inspirational source, as reflected in their various bodies of work, also displays a highly personal and original vision in regard to form and colour as well as to the use of materials and construction. The oeuvre of Nel Haringa and Fred Olijve is clear, perceivable and process-oriented and as such it holds a strong objective "democratic" component. A quality that connects them to the principles of modern art but also of a kind that goes beyond retrospection. Theirs is an investigative artistry, calculated but never chilly, that ties abstraction to emotion.

"4 RED Boxes illusion sculpture" 2022 28x25x8"

By Sanseviero

Located in Southampton, NY

Only 4 sculptures by Sanseviero remain available for the Summer season here in the Hamptons . We have sold 40 sculptures (See the image with all 40 sold sculptures.) This is one of those 4 sculptures. Now is the time to purchase one of the last 4 sculptures still available before the end of the Hamptons Summer season. Sanseviero's metal sculptures fool the eye. His "illusion sculptures" are amazingly only 1/16th of an inch thick and yet they appear to be 3 dimensional boxes with open centers that are stacked on top of each other. I have included a side view so that you can see how thin this illusion sculpture is. He first designs how the formation of "Boxes" will layout and then hand cuts the shape he has just designed. He then welds the flat sculpture...
