| Περιγραφή τεκμηρίου: |
Theodoros very soon abandoned the representational efforts of his student years to impose his personal independent spirit on his work. He has always sought a way for sculpture to establish a close relationship with the public by creating sculptures for public spaces.His works of the 1960s were sculptural compositions mostly in bronze or steel. He experimented with the harmony and equilibrium of forms on the ground and in the air with Surrealistic or Dadaistic prototypes as his points of departure. In this vein, in 1993, Theodoros created the construction "Twelve Ray-Spoked Wheel on Cables Counterbalanced by a Sphere". Impressive and imposing, this construction is the only version realized in a scale appropriate for a public space. At the same time, it is a proposal for a sculpture that functions in an urban setting in the post-industrial age. |
