Iron Bull. Juan García Ripollés (b. 1932).

Iron Bull. Juan García Ripollés (b. 1932).

Descriptio Original sculpture in wrought and welded iron, entirely handmade and signed by the artist on one of the hind legs. Dimensions: 62 × 113 × 55 cm. The piece, with its striking sculptural presence, represents a bull fragmented into rhythmic sections that evoke both the animal’s vital energy and Juan Ripollés’s characteristic organic and expressionist style. Its material treatment, with irregular surfaces and a dark patina, underscores the tension between strength and balance, recurring themes in his work. The sculpture has been published and authenticated, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist, a photograph of the piece in his studio, and a copy of the catalogue “Juan Ripollés. Towards Glass” (Marsilio Ed., 2018), which references his sculptural work. A unique piece within the Valencian master’s metal production, recognized for its combination of formal ingenuity and powerful plastic language.
