Untitled

"People often identify my work with bronzes and large public work, and they're not aware of the more intimate side." ~Joel Shapiro Small in scale compared to his other works, this piece presents visitors with an unexpected opportunity for connection to an abstract work of art. The simple, geometric forms of Joel Shapiro's bronze sculpture suggest the human body in motion. From certain vantage points, Untitled seems to resemble a figure with two upraised arms and one extended leg. This playful pose invites viewers to think about movement and even mimic the stance.
