Bertoia's work from the early 1950s is typified by compositions of thin, linear forms in space. Expressed in both drawings and sculpture, the works are lyrical and compositionally charged. Bertoia stated, "wire forms...pertain to space rather than ground, and their configurations can be light, airy, almost floating." provenance: Estate of Harry Bertoia
