Brazil, mid 20th century
Acrylic lucite, 8 x 6 x 4.5 cm
Excellent condition, with only minor surface scratches to base.
A pioneering figure of Brazilian modernism and kinetic art, Abraham Palatnik (1928–2020) is internationally recognised for his exploration of light, colour, and perception. This lucite frog captures a poised moment, reflecting his exploration of light and semi-abstract form.
Sitting between art and design, an industrial material becomes something quietly lyrical in Palatnik’s modernist hands: light passes through translucent planes of acrylic, creating depth and transforming the form from within.
A small work to hold, but one with unexpected presence and visual strength.
