Evocation of a Form: Human, Lunar, Spectral, Bronze sculpture at Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, United States
The bronze sculpture features abstract organic forms that merge human characteristics with celestial elements through smooth curved surfaces and flowing lines.
Created by Jean Arp in 1950 during a period of significant artistic innovation, the sculpture was cast in bronze in 1957 for permanent display.
The artwork represents a pivotal moment in modern sculpture, combining elements of Dadaism and Surrealism with abstract interpretations of natural forms.
The sculpture measures 115.6 centimeters in height and stands outdoors in the Hirshhorn Museum garden, accessible during regular museum hours.
The sculpture integrates three distinct concepts - human form, lunar elements, and spectral qualities - into a single bronze composition.
