The Basket
A trompe-l’œil feat, this bronze basketry combines the spirit of “the way home from the market” holding yesteryear’s basket with the material and craft of classical sculpture. The basket, ready to welcome a still life of fruits and vegetables, is one of the ordinary objects that Bruno Catalano has consecrated as an art object. Through sculpture, it recalls the essential place of daily decorative objects in the history of art.
