About the Item

bronze. The sculpture features a rich and nuanced surface treatment, with deeply textured areas enhanced by a light green patina, contrasting beautifully with the smooth planes that retain a warm bronze sheen. This interplay of texture, color, and light accentuates the work's sense of movement and sculptural depth. Mounted on a polished black Belgian marble plinth of matching dimensions, the sculpture achieves a striking balance between the organic complexity of the bronze form and the refined elegance of its base. The free standing plinth is on a perfect height to enable the viewer to engage with the sculpture from all its angles. Marinus Adrianus George "Rien" Goené was born in Utrecht in 1929 and is recognized for both his monumental sculptures and his abstract paintings. His work is characterized by a powerful sense of form, materiality, and spatial presence, qualities that are beautifully embodied in this exceptional piece. A compelling example of late 20th-century Dutch Brutalist sculpture, combining architectural strength with artistic sophistication.
