Abstract Wood Collage by Felice Antonio Botta, Italy, 20th Century

Creator: Feliceantonio Botta
Offered by: Thomas Gallery Ltd.

Description
Abstract wood wall sculpture by Italian artist and designer, Felice Antonio Botta.

Botta was an early proponent of used 'poor materials' (recovered and found wood) for a movement that became known as arte povera (poor art). In this piece his arrangement of a table and table setting is striking, even decorative as his combination of syncronous and dyscyncronous wood arrangements reflect sympathies with the cubist movement and contemporary abstraction.

Categories: Modern and Contemporary Art, Painting, Abstraction, Cubism, Arte Povera, Post-Minimalisml, Mid-Century.

Message from Seller:

T. Thomas Gargiulo came from a dual background as a Ph.D. in Psychology with extensive training in Art History and Anthropology to form Thomas Gallery in downtown Manhattan in 1997 to balance intellectual with design pursuits. Since its inception the gallery has seen decorative arts as a vibrant representation of human culture of each age and as a portal to understanding it. P: 917.434.4032 E: thomasgalleryltd@gmail.com
