Brutalist artwork
Impressive piece of brutalist wall art, made in Belgium by an unknown artist in the 1970s. These kind of copper or bronze reliefs were made especially in the 1960s and 70s In this case it’s in copper and made from a relatively thin sheet of metal that was hammered or pressed. If you turn this work around you can see the mirrored shapes on the reverse side are hollow. The artist pushed and stretched the metal outward from the back to create three-dimensional forms and raised designs. This technique is known as ‘repoussé’ technique for which copper was a prefered material. The greenish effect on the deeper lying parts is called ‘verdigris’ or copper patina. Sunlight on the work has an even deepening effect on these colours. One of the top corner has been folded, further in good condition.
