              Est: €6,000 - €7,000

              MARTÍN CHIRINO LÓPEZ (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 1925). "The spiral wind of the rose", 2006. Bronze. Exemplary 12/75. Signed and dated. Work reproduced in the catalog raisonné of the artist. p.444. Measurements: 25 x 60 x 60 cm. Sculpture of round bulk whose form recalls the abstraction in an organic way. Being a piece that despite the rigidity of the material, it seems ductile. The sculptor has managed to capture the movement through the twisting of the bronze, which forms different waves of volumetric character. However, this spiral that iconographically represents the wind is supported by a base whose volume of straight and rounded lines creates a dialectic play of the forms that make up the sculptural ensemble. The sculptor Martín Chirino developed his training at the San Fernando School in Madrid and at the School of Fine Arts in London. After a first sculptural series "Reinas Negras" (Black Queens), and exhibitions such as the group show at the Museo Canario, Chirino moved to Madrid in 1955, accompanied by his friends Manolo Millares, Elvireta Escobio, Manuel Padrono and Alejandro Reino. He also spent a month in London, where he got to know first-hand the Sumerian and Egyptian sculptures in the British Museum. Only one year later, in 1956, the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Madrid acquired two of his works. He then held his first solo exhibition at the Ateneo de Madrid, after which he became a member of the recently founded El Paso group. His recognition grew, and only two years later he was given a special room in the Spanish pavilion at the São Paulo Biennial. In 1960 he took part in a group exhibition at the MOMA in New York, where he presented four pieces, one of which already featured the spiral, the most recurrent theme in his work since those years. The gallerist Grace Borgenicht, impressed by these four pieces, made a trip to Madrid to hire Chirino exclusively for the United States, a contract that remained in force until Borgenicht's death in 1994. Since his participation in the MOMA collective, and after the dissolution of El Paso in 1960, Chirino developed his solo career and showed his work all over the world, an abstract production characterized by the lack of narrative elements and by formal and symbolic richness. He is currently represented in museums all over the world, including the Guggenheim in New York, the MACBA in Barcelona, the Juan March Foundation, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, the Museo de Bellas Artes in Caracas, etc.

              MARTIN CHIRINO (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 1925). "Tribute". Marinetti XI Series (TP), 2007. Forged and blued iron. Unique piece. Attached certificate of authenticity issued by the artist. Work reproduced in the Artist's Catalog Raisonné. Vol II, which will be published in March 2023. Work exhibited in the Art Maestros exhibition, Madrid, 2013. It presents slight marks on the base and the sculpture. It has a base made of wood and metal. Signed on the base with the artist's initials. Measurements: 24 x 77 x 16 cm; 2 x 27 x 7 cm (metal base); 4.5 x 40 x 41 cm (wooden base). Since the beginning of the 1990s, Martín Chirino began to draw inspiration from the figure of Marinetti, the renowned poet and creator of the "Futurist Manifesto". An example of this is the monumental sculpture by Chirino in the Plaza de Europa in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, which was created in 1992. Chirino's inspiration for Marinetti and his work stems from his interest in capturing the movement and transformation of space through vibrant lines. In this sculpture this conception can be appreciated, resulting in a lyrical and elegant finish in which the author has mastered the strength of the material and has managed to capture a subtle movement that seems to simulate the artist's own stroke on the space he inhabits. The sculptor Martín Chirino trained at the Escuela de San Fernando in Madrid and at the School of Fine Arts in London. After a first series of sculptures, "Reinas Negras" (Black Queens), and exhibitions such as the group show at the Museo Canario, Chirino moved to Madrid in 1955, accompanied by his friends Manolo Millares, Elvireta Escobio, Manuel Padrono and Alejandro Reino. He also spent a month in London, where he saw first-hand the Sumerian and Egyptian sculptures in the British Museum. Only a year later, in 1956, the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Madrid acquired two of his works. He then held his first solo exhibition at the Ateneo de Madrid, after which he became a member of the recently founded El Paso group. His recognition grew, and only two years later he was given a special room in the Spanish pavilion at the São Paulo Biennial. In 1960 he took part in a group exhibition at the MOMA in New York, where he presented four pieces, one of which already featured the spiral, the most recurrent theme in his work from those years onwards. The gallerist Grace Borgenicht, impressed by these four pieces, made a trip to Madrid to contract Chirino exclusively for the United States, a contract that remained in force until Borgenicht's death in 1994. Since his participation in the MOMA group exhibition, and after the dissolution of El Paso in 1960, Chirino developed his solo career and showed his work all over the world, an abstract production characterised by its lack of narrative elements and its formal and symbolic richness. He is currently represented in museums all over the world, including the Guggenheim in New York, the MACBA in Barcelona, the Juan March Foundation, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, the Museo de Bellas Artes in Caracas, etc.
