Sculpture, an ancient three-dimensional art rich in diversity, is one of humanity's most fundamental and universal forms of expression. From the earliest human representations like the Venus of Willendorf to the monumental works of the Māori on Easter Island, sculpture has always held a central place in art history.
Traditionally, sculpture is divided into two main categories: freestanding works, which are entirely self-contained, and bas-reliefs, often integrated into architecture. In antiquity, Greek and Roman sculptures symbolized human and divine perfection. Later, medieval art incorporated sculpture into religious architecture, as seen in the ornate sculptures of Gothic cathedrals.
It was truly during the Renaissance that sculpture experienced a revolution, reconnecting with classical ideals and introducing unprecedented anatomical realism. Masterpieces such as Michelangelo's David embody this period, where expressiveness and anatomical precision became central.
The 20th century saw a break from classical conventions. Auguste Rodin, for example, introduced a new, more emotional and expressive approach. This period also marked the emergence of avant-garde movements that reinvented sculpture: Cubism with Pablo Picasso, abstraction with Constantin Brancusi, and Dadaism with Marcel Duchamp, who revolutionized art by introducing the concept of the "ready-made." From the 1960s onward, minimalism, with artists like Donald Judd, redefined the boundaries of sculpture by simplifying forms and focusing on space.
Today, contemporary sculpture is a playground for innovation, with artists experimenting with a variety of materials and approaches. The collection we offer reflects this diversity, bringing together works in bronze, marble, glass, and many other materials.
