The Lot Info
The Lot Summary
AGAPÉ EFFERVESCENT SERIES

Each sculpture is an individual masterpiece from the hands of the internationally acclaimed South African sculptor Anton Smit
This exquisite Anton Smit Lot forms part of not only one mask, but a triptych of three larger than life faces in progression from human to Spirit.

Each face, hand painted in a different colour, portraying the essence of life.

Agape Effervescent series – Transcending human suffering – depicting the lightness of being, rendering visible that which is spiritual.

Apparition of faces bristling with light – Afire with God

Defying gravity – dissolving the visual world and trans mutating the figurative landscape.

Not only does each piece draw the viewer into the work it also allows the landscape to become part of the work, making each piece a virtual experience, captivating and intriguing.

Beautifully conceptualized by poetry and Anton’s own life experience of the human journey, each piece tells a unique story woven into a narrative of human suffering and transparency, conflicts of daily life.

Instead of a fleeting experience the successful bidder will take this lot home with him /her to enjoy every day as part of their own art collection
