Project for a Monument 1977

"Project for a Monument" is a 1977 sculpture by Spanish artist Pablo Palazuelo. It is a minimalist and geometric piece consisting of a rusted metal form that evokes a stylized bird in flight, with sharp angles and contrasting planes that give it a dynamic sense of movement. The sculpture’s simple yet powerful forms and its unfinished, raw aesthetic reflect Palazuelo's interest in exploring the interplay of light and shadow, as well as the basic principles of geometry and structure. This piece showcases Palazuelo's signature style, characterized by abstraction and a focus on the expressive qualities of line and form.
