Description
Designer: Enzo Torcoletti
USA - Circa 1989
Dimensions: 39" H x 7.5" W x 6.5" D
Condition: Excellent vintage condition.
Discover the elegance of minimalist modern art with this striking abstract sculpture titled "Stela" by the acclaimed artist Enzo Torcoletti. Hand-carved in 1989, this piece is crafted from solid unfilled travertine, showcasing Torcoletti's mastery in stone carving. The sculpture stands on a refined imperial black marble base, providing a dramatic contrast to the travertine's natural hues.
"Stela" features a narrow form with subtle curves and faceted sides, accentuated by horizontal cuts that create a segmented, rhythmic effect. This minimalist design embodies both strength and delicacy, making it a captivating centerpiece for any contemporary space. Measuring 39” H x 7.5” W x 6.5” D, its impressive stature makes a bold statement while maintaining an elegant presence.
Signed and dated by Torcoletti along the bottom edge of the base, this sculpture is not only a testament to his artistic vision but also a collectible piece of art history. Enzo Torcoletti, born in Italy, pursued an extensive education in the arts across Italy, Canada, and the United States. His profound knowledge and skill are reflected in his diverse body of work, which spans various media but predominantly focuses on stone carving in recent years.
Torcoletti’s sculptures have been exhibited widely and are part of numerous private and public collections globally. His contributions to the field of sculpture have been recognized in several authoritative publications, including "The Sculpture Reference Book" and multiple sculpture textbooks by Arthur Williams. In 2023, Torcoletti was honored with the Ambassador of the Arts award from the Florida Council on Arts & Culture, underscoring his significant impact on the arts. (full artist bio upon request)
