Large Mid-Century Abstract Wood Assemblage Wall Sculpture, 1960s

Chairish

$3,150

A commanding 4 foot statement piece representing the height of 1960s American Studio Craft. This high relief work is a masterclass in Found Object Assemblage, utilizing a rhythmic puzzle of wood shop off cuts, industrial spools, and domestic remnants to create a rich, tactile topography. The composition features a playful, narrative subtext hidden within the abstract "scrap" aesthetic. Silhouettes of toy like horses, floral motifs, and an airplane propeller emerge from the layered geometry, offering a soulful, Playful Modernist counterpoint to the rugged Brutalist construction. Design Impact At 48 inches wide and 4 inches deep, the sculpture creates a dramatic interplay of light and shadow. The various "found" elements are unified by a deep, multi tonal tobacco stain, making it a definitive focal point for Mid Century or Post Modern interiors. Details Dimensions: 48"L x 28"H x 4"D Style: Brutalist / Found Object Assemblage Materials: Stained mixed wood "scraps" on a structural plywood gallery mount. Condition: Excellent vintage state with original un refinished patina. Due to the complex nature of the assemblage, one or two elements may be missing, though it is difficult to discern given the intentional, rough hewn "scrap" design. This piece is unsigned.
