Modern & Contemporary Art & Sculpture

Selected for sculptural form, architectural presence and material innovation, these twentieth-century works are suited to collectors, interior designers and contemporary residential interiors.
Featured Modern Works
Giorgio Zennaro — Number 14, 1972
Created in Pietrasanta in 1972, Giorgio Zennaro’s Number 14 is a large polished bronze abstract sculpture defined by interlocking geometric planes and architectural form. Its reflective surfaces and changing silhouettes place the work firmly within the language of postwar Italian modernism.
Giorgio Zennaro — Number 16, 1972
Signed and dated 1972, Giorgio Zennaro's No. 16 is a substantial Italian abstract sculpture composed of interlocking stainless steel forms. Its sweeping planes and reflective surfaces create a dynamic interplay of movement, light, and negative space. Documented in the original exhibition catalog, the work measures 37 inches wide and offers a striking sculptural presence for contemporary interiors.
Rhythm — Robert Mitchell
This 1970s polished bronze sculpture by British artist Robert Mitchell combines fluid abstract form with a luminous reflective surface. Mounted on a richly veined green marble base, the looping composition changes dramatically from every angle and reflects the period’s fascination with movement and sculptural space.
Bird — Herbert Brooks Walker
Created in 1967, Bird transforms formed aluminum sheet into a sweeping architectural composition suggestive of flight and movement. Mounted on a verde green marble base, the rare sculpture exemplifies Herbert Brooks Walker’s exploration of industrial materials, abstraction, and American mid-century modernism.
Additional Modern Works
Charles Delporte — Modernist Bust
A striking modernist polished bronze bust by Belgian artist Charles Delporte, distinguished by its elongated form, abstract facial features, and highly reflective surface. Signed “Delporte” and numbered 34/100, the sculpture combines figurative reference with bold twentieth-century abstraction.
Brutalist Male Figure — Brussels School, Mid-20th Century

A commanding mid-century Belgian plaster sculpture with rich bronze patination, attributed to the Brussels School. Standing 48.5 inches tall, its rugged, striated surfaces and powerful vertical form embody the expressive materiality of Brutalist sculpture. A striking statement piece for contemporary residences, architectural entryways, and sophisticated modern interiors.
Tête de Caryatide — After Modigliani
Tête de Caryatide — After Modigliani
