Vintage 1970s Sergio Bustamante Brass and Copper Parrot

An exceptional vintage 1970s mixed-metal parrot sculpture by the legendary Mexican modernist artist Sergio Bustamante. Masterfully hand-wrought from overlapping sheets of solid brass and warm copper, this striking brutalist bird statue carries a magnificent, commanding presence. 62 " H x 13 " W x 13 " D Weight: 35lbs The distinct combination of metals showcases a wonderful interplay of color, from the bright golden flash of the brass to the deep, earthy tones of the copper plumage. Left in its honest, unpolished state, the sculpture boasts an extraordinary organic patina that instantly anchors a room. Perfect for bringing a layer of historic soul and atmospheric drama to a moody library shelf, a large mantlepiece, or a curated curiosity cabinet.
