Sculpture by E.T. Mergenov «The twentieth century» 1985

Description

The composition is made with a complex semantic implication. A man in an astronaut’s suit is sitting on an ordinary chair, but his figure is tense, he leans on the edge of the chair, his arms are open in an effort to overcome the invisible attraction, a face with closed eyes betrays internal resistance or circumstances, or the inability to break the shackles of materiality, the forces of earthly and everyday gravity.
Material: bronze, aluminum, wood, metal.
