Painted Lady

Erika Verzutti (1971 –)

Brazilian sculptor Erika Verzutti blends organic & geometric forms in bronze, concrete, & fabric. Known for evocative pieces exhibited globally.

Formed from bronze casts of bananas, pomegranates, and other fruits, and inhabiting an ambiguous space between representation and abstraction, Painted Ladyhas an uncanny anthropomorphic quality that is also found in works by Louise Bourgeois and Eva Hesse, as well as in those of Brazilian artists Tarsila do Amaral and Maria Martins. Erika Verzutti has characterized her practice as mirroring the process of natural growth; inPainted Lady, this takes the form of a totem pole. Echoing Brancusi’sEndless Columnsculptures of the early twentieth century, the artist forges a link between established modernist methodologies and less outwardly rational ways of working.
