Salvador Dali (1904-1989) - Sculpture

Salvador Dali (1904-1989) (after) Building of Eyes Surreal bronze sculpture – Edition 21/35 – Lost-wax casting Singular sculpture titled “Building of Eyes”, cast in bronze using the traditional lost-wax casting technique, part of a limited edition of 35 copies, this piece being number 21/35. The work develops a striking architectural and surreal composition in which a large vertical structure appears covered by a rhythmic sequence of eyes in relief, creating a powerful sense of vigilance, mystery and dreamlike atmosphere. At the lower area, a small building and a stylized streetlamp introduce an urban reference that reinforces the monumental and imaginary scale of the edifice. Notably, the richness of the modelling stands out, with a deliberately textured surface, marked by reliefs, incisions and different bronze treatments that provide depth and expressive strength. The piece features an attractive patina in green, bluish and brown tones, especially effective in highlighting the volumes and the fantastical character of the composition. The reverse preserves the textures inherent to the casting process and shows marks and incisions, visible in the photographs. The sculpture integrates with its own architectural base, forming a set of great decorative and sculptural presence. Title: Building of Eyes Technique: Bronze in lost-wax casting Edition: 21/35 Finish: Patina green, bluish and brown Condition: Good overall condition, with slight variations, scuffs and superficial oxidations inherent to the bronze’s nature and patina. See detailed photographs. A work of pronounced surrealist personality and extraordinary visual impact, especially attractive to collectors of contemporary and surrealist sculpture.
