MAGEN H GALLERY Large Sculptures
MAGEN H GALLERY XX CENTURY DESIGN
Magen H Gallery LARGE SCULPTURE Since 1997, Magen H. Gallery has pioneered revolutionary and significant design in sculpture, decorative arts, architecture, and ceramics. With special emphasis given to French post-war designers, the collection progresses the artistic dialogue between these historically significant works and contemporaries who visually articulate a personal philosophy. These pieces reveal the compelling tension between the organic spirit of the material and the artists’ mastery over the medium. From its inception, the collection of works has been built on the founding premise that art and design are allied and interdependent. Exhibiting works in craft mediums (clay, metal, wood, silicon and aluminum), the gallery seeks objects that transcend form and function. By synthesizing modern
and
mid-century
designers,
Magen
H.
Gallery
continues
to
redefine the decorative arts market with innovative and significant design.

Nicolas SCHOFFER Nicolas Schöffer (Hungarian, September 6, 1912 — January 8, 1992) was a Hungarian-born French artist. He can be considered as the father of cybernetic art. He was born in Kalocsa, Hungary and resided in Paris from 1936 till his death in his Montmartre atelier in 1992. His career touched on painting, kinetic sculpture, architecture, urbanism, film, TV, and music. All of the artistic actions of Schöffer were done in the pursuit of a dynamism in art. This interest in artistic dynamism was originally initiated by the Cubo-Futurists and then intensified and solidified by the Russian Constructivism artists, such as Naum Gabo, Anton Pevsner, Moholy-Nagy and Ludwig Hirschfeld-Mack. All these artists were concerned with opening up the static three-dimensional sculptural form to a fourth dimension of time and motion. And this was the intention of Schöffer as well. Schöffer however, coming well after, benefited from cybernetic theories (theories of

feedback systems (interactivity) primarily based on the ideas of Norbert Wiener (1894– 1964)) in that they suggested to him artistic processes in terms of the organization of the system manifesting it (e.g., the circular causality of feedback-loops). For Schöffer, this enabled cybernetics to elucidate complex artistic relationships from within the work itself.
