🇩🇪 Eine monumentale Bronzeskulptur zeigt einen Olivenbaum, der aus einer patinierten, erdähnlichen Kugel wächst – als hätte jemand den Planeten Erde auf Zimmerpflanzengröße geschrumpft und dabei vergessen, den Baum zu skalieren. Das blaugrüne Kupferoxid auf der Kugel lässt sie wie eine verwitterte Weltkugel aussehen, was die Frage aufwirft: Ist das Kunst, Geografie oder einfach ein sehr ambitionierter Blumentopf? 🇬🇧 A monumental bronze sculpture depicts an olive tree growing from a patinated, earth-like sphere – as if someone shrank Planet Earth to houseplant size but forgot to scale down the tree. The blue-green verdigris on the globe makes it look like a weathered world map, raising the question: is this art, geography, or simply a very ambitious flower pot?

With a bent-knee pose that connotes rapid movement, the Etruscan sun god Usil dashes across breaking waves, borne aloft by wings on his back and boots. Except for his footgear, he is nude. His arms extend away from his muscular body, which twists at the waist to face forward. This splendid figure was cast in one piece together with its support, which comprises stylized waves above a beaded band and a flat Ionic capital that tapers down to the paw of a feline creature that has unusually thick, fleshy pads. With locally abundant sources of copper and modest amounts of tin, Etruscan metalsmiths excelled in fashioning a variety of beautiful bronze objects, including lamp stands, incense burners, mirrors, vessels, and containers. This remarkable object was one of three identical feet supporting a cista, or lidded chest, typically used by women to store their cosmetics and toiletries. The body of the chest was fashioned from a sheet of hammered bronze, and it was probably incised with intricate illustrations of mythological or other scenes. That part is now lost; only the solid-cast feet that once supported it survive. Its now-missing lid likely had an equally exquisite figural handle that would also have been solid cast.

L'image révèle une installation sculpturale saisissante, composée de nombreuses horloges de tailles et de formes variées, empilées et imbriquées pour former une colonne imposante, presque organique. Cette œuvre en bronze de l'artiste français Arman, créée en 1985 et intitulée « L'heure de tous », se trouve Cour du Havre, face à la gare Saint-Lazare à Paris. Les horloges sont majoritairement circulaires, bien que certaines semblent octogonales, et arborent des chiffres romains. Leurs aiguilles indiquent des heures différentes, contribuant au caractère surréaliste et dynamique de l'œuvre. Elles sont réalisées en bronze vieilli, dont la patine évoque le temps et les intempéries. La sculpture est installée sur une place parisienne. À l'arrière-plan, un imposant bâtiment orné, l'hôtel Hilton Paris Opéra, de style classique, domine la scène. Cet hôtel de plusieurs étages présente une façade beige, des fenêtres cintrées, des balcons aux balustrades en fer forgé et un toit mansardé percé de lucarnes. Le ciel offre un mélange saisissant de bleus et de gris, avec des nuages ​​texturés qui créent une toile de fond légèrement mélancolique et atmosphérique. La composition est centrée sur la sculpture d'horloge, qui occupe la majeure partie du cadre, s'étendant du bas jusqu'à presque le haut. La perspective en contre-plongée accentue la hauteur et la présence imposante de la sculpture. Les couleurs, douces et naturelles, de la sculpture et du bâtiment contrastent avec les bleus et les gris plus dynamiques du ciel. Parmi les détails subtils, un petit oiseau perché au sommet de l'horloge la plus haute apporte une touche de vie inattendue à cet ensemble statique. Certains cadrans présentent des signes d'usure, avec de la peinture écaillée et des aiguilles diffuses, renforçant ainsi le thème du temps. L'impression générale est celle d'un monument surréaliste, dédié au temps, se détachant sur un fond d'architecture urbaine classique.

Emilio Garcia Expands the Forbidden Brain Series with “Once Upon a Brain”! Emilio Garcia returns with a striking new addition to his ongoing Forbidden Brain series… introducing “Once Upon a Brain.” Pulling inspiration from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), this latest piece leans into themes of temptation, curiosity, and risk… transforming the familiar poisoned apple into something far more cerebral. Garcia’s signature exploration of the brain as both symbol and subject takes center stage once again… blending narrative storytelling with anatomical abstraction.

3 Mycenaean inspired fantasy warriors with bronze weapons and armour.

Finished another Bronze Age warrior, thought I'd try and combine them together. These 3 characters represent the 3 main human factions along the Arkenan Coast.
