ABÍLIO FEBRA (B.1956) - MARBLE SCULPTURE - Elegant contemporary sculpture by the prestigious Portuguese sculptor Abílio Febra, dated 1996 — the year the artist was awarded the prestigious Edinfor Sculpture Prize at the Estoril Casino Art Gallery. The work presents a stylized female silhouette of strong poetic content, where the author masterfully explores the duality between the curved and organic forms of the body and the geometric rigidity of the material. The sinuous volume of the female nude, so characteristic of the sculptor's artistic journey linked to essence and femininity, harmoniously contrasts with the rawness and textured features of its support base. A unique collectible piece, 56 cm high, highly representative of the artist's best stone production period in the 1990s. Excellent condition.
