- Lot Description
Giuseppe Palumbo (American, b. 1958). "On the Lamb" bronze, 2015. Edition 4 of 500. Signature on back thigh of leftmost sheep. Date and edition number on back thigh of central black sheep. A wonderfully whimsical bronze sculpture by Giuseppe Palumbo, "On the Lamb" presents a playful trio of anthropomorphized sheep. Two white sheep flank a central black sheep, and the engaging ensemble performs a lively kickline or Can Can dance. The title "On the Lamb" refers to someone who is trying to escape or hide from the authorities and is a tongue in cheek reference to the concept of the black sheep of the family. According to Palumbo, his sheep series "plays with the idea of herd mentality, following the crowd and celebrating the individuality of the black sheep." Size: 6" L x 10" W x 10" H (15.2 cm x 25.4 cm x 25.4 cm)
Artist Statement: "Through my sculptures I create a visual method of communication that Is deeply felt, intuitive and expansive beyond words. As narratives, the sculptures may explore concepts of duality, acknowledging light and shadow. Others depict beauty and proportion found throughout nature as a higher essence of being and oneness. Some pieces probe timeless questions of humanity through contemporary interpretation of myth, metaphor and social commentary. Levity is utilized as a tonic and protest for the paradoxes of the human condition." (artist's website)
Provenance: private Niwot, Colorado, USA collection; acquired from Aerena Galleries, Yountville, California, USA
