Description
Using solid square-bar steel, German sculptor Robert Schad (born 1953) creates drawings of movement in space. Rather than bend or shape the material, Schad welds together straight limb-like sections of varying lengths and strengths, imparting a paradoxical weightlessness to the works. Recalling human gestures such as sweeps and arches, these remarkable sculptures seem perpetually on the verge of dancing.
