"Acrobat" Upside Down Figure 1926

"Acrobat" Upside Down Figure, a bronze sculpture by Gaston Lachaise, depicts a female figure in a contorted, upside-down position. The figure's muscular, rounded form and dynamic pose evoke a sense of strength and athleticism. The sculpture's simple, geometric form and smooth, polished surface are characteristic of Lachaise's style, which was influenced by both classical and modern art. Created in 1926, this bronze sculpture is currently on display at The Art Institute of Chicago.
