Oriforme c. 1962 - 1977

"Oriforme" (c. 1962-1977) is a large, abstract sculpture by Jean Arp, a leading figure in the Dada and Surrealist movements. The work, composed of a single, biomorphic form in polished stainless steel, is characterized by its smooth, flowing curves and a large, central void. Arp's signature style of organic, biomorphic shapes is evident in this monumental sculpture, which evokes a sense of both natural growth and abstract form. The artist's fascination with natural forms and his commitment to creating art that is both playful and profound is evident in "Oriforme."
