Acquire a piece of American architectural art history. This striking wall relief is an original, registered work by the highly collected modernist sculptor Rod Kagan. Rod Kagan was a recipient of the prestigious National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship. His works are permanently installed in over 38 major US cities and featured in the Boise Art Museum and the Smithsonian. Known for his technical mastery of metals, this piece beautifully showcases Kagan’s signature play on geometric asymmetry, crisp angles, and high-contrast material finishes.
This piece (c. 1981) is anchored by two overlapping, angular sheets of patinated bronze. The surfaces feature a rich, earthy, rust-toned oxidation that offers a deeply textured, organic matte finish. Slashing across the bronze canvas is a heavy, mirror-polished architectural column crafted from solid brass. It is signed, dated, titled and edition 8/12.
True to Kagan's influences—which root back to early American mineral mines and tribal totem geometry—this piece projects an aura of permanence, weight, and elite post-modernism. This piece is a high end, large fine art show piece for your home.
