Work is described as: "Harry formed melted brass stalagtites through mesh by dripping liquid brass from back side of panel." Lot is accompanied by the Certificate of Authentication issued by the Bertoia Studio 8.15.2014. The studio has provided additional information on the unusual term "stalagtite" as follows: "The term is used to indicate brass slag on the screen going upward, instead of hanging from ceiling. Harry did not name his sculptures, but the name we gave it later on is appropriate as a standing piece." We would like to thank the Bertoia Studio, Bally, Pennsylvania for their kind assistance in describing this work.
