Description
983 Patinated bronze
Conceived in 1983 and cast in an edition of 350 by Blanchet Fondeur, Paris, this candlestick is among the most intimate expressions of Chadwick's sculptural language. The angular, tapering form distils the geometric vocabulary of his monumental bronzes into a functional object of quiet authority. A polished golden facet at the apex breaks the dark patina, a technique Chadwick introduced in the late 1960s to create contrast and draw the eye upward.
The candlestick series is included in the catalogue raisonné of Chadwick's work, placing it firmly within his sculptural practice rather than as a peripheral design object. Published by Artcurial, Paris.
Signed on the outside of one leg. Numbered 89/350 on the inside of a leg. Supplied in original box. Height 25 cm.
Presentation
Lynn Chadwick was an English artist known for his innovative bronze and steel sculptures of abstracted and expressive figures and animals. Chadwick's method is considered unique in his choice not to sketch his sculpture beforehand, preferring instead to improvise and weld metal without a specific plan in place. He was born on November 24, 1914 in the London suburb of Barnes and studied as an apprentice architect under Roger Thomas, who would encourage him towards sculpture. Chadwick's earliest sculptures were fragile mobiles constructed with balsa wood, copper, and brass, not unlike those of Alexander Calder.
In 1950, he had his first major exhibition of his mobiles at Gimpel Fils gallery, which led to significant critical attention. The artist was then chosen to represent Britain at the 1956 Venice Biennale and was awarded its International Sculpture Prize, becoming its then-youngest recipient. He debuted his first steel sculpture, Two Winged Figures, for an outdoor show in 1962, and his works from this period are noted from their combination of abstract detail and natural forms. He was named a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1964 and a Commandeur des Arts et des Lettres in 1993. He died on April 25, 2003 in Gloucestershire, England.
