Custodia 1960

"Custodia" is a 1960 sculpture by Mexican artist Mathias Goeritz, known for his abstract and monumental works. The sculpture is a minimalist composition made of welded metal, featuring a vertical element topped with an arrow shape, a circular form, and a spiraling base. The use of geometric shapes and the industrial material convey a sense of simplicity and strength, characteristic of Goeritz's style, which often incorporated elements of nature and spirituality. This piece exemplifies the artist's interest in exploring the relationship between art and architecture, creating a dynamic form that interacts with its surroundings.
