Wooden Sculpture by Bernd Lohaus, Belgium, 1996
About the Item
Wooden sculpture by German artist Bernd Lohaus showcased in his solo exhibition at Galerie Micheline Szwajcer in 1996 Antwerp. Lohaus, a luminary figure in Antwerp's avant-garde art scene, more specifically in the formerly Wide White Space gallery, channels his profound exploration of materiality and language into a mesmerizing masterpiece. Crafted from Azobe wood, also known as red ironwood, sourced from wood dealers in Antwerp, this sculpture stands as a testament to the intersection of art and the urban landscape. Azobe wood, renowned for its resilience to seawater, was a staple in port and harbor constructions along the River Scheldt. Lohaus' meticulous yet minimalistic treatment of the wood allows its inherent characteristics to shine through, evoking a profound dialogue between material and meaning. Words delicately etched or ephemeral chalk inscriptions further elevate the sculpture, inviting viewers into a contemplative engagement with time, space, and human existence. With each stroke and inscription, Lohaus leaves an indelible mark on the viewer's psyche.

- Belgian art and design, Michel Martens Postmodern Glass SculptureBy Michel MartensLocated in Antwerp, BEBelgium; 1970's; Glass sculpture; Postmodern art; Michel Martens, a large glass sculpture with several punctuation marks, colored, frosted, and sandblasted glass. Signed by the artist on the bottom right corner. Belgium artist Michel Martens is famous for his impressive glass art. He created this postmodern piece of art in the 1970s. Martens (1921-2006) was a respected designer of stained glass windows and had an impressive career creating stained glass windows for churches. His credo was 'light is my material, glass my medium'. Martens was an autodidact and first taught himself the technique of stained windows. He designed an impressive 7000 meters stained glass between 1947 and 1989 for churches and monasteries. From 1968 onwards, Martens started to lose the church as a main client and therefore started to develop a practice in which he worked with mirrors that were also suitable for the private sector and private homes. With his radical and modern approach to glass art, Martens became part of the Post-war Abstract Modernist movement. Using mirrored glass opened up new perspectives for Martens. He even started using industrial glass as well, for his so-called 'Crazy Mirrors...Category
