Provenance The artist, from whom acquired by Art Bronze Foundry Limited, where acquired by the present owner We are grateful to Dr. Sophie Bowness for her assistance cataloguing this lot "I was born with the ideas of certain shapes in my mind. At least I remember as far back as seven. The whole time one's been working at it and working, trying to simplify and make more mature, get the right scale, and develop it according to the development of society" - Barbara Hepworth Michael Gaskin was a talented bronze caster who became closely associated with Hepworth during the 1950s. His skill in metal casting was instrumental in helping Hepworth realize some of her most important sculptures in bronze. He and his team at the Art Bronze Foundry worked with Hepworth to cast some of her key pieces, which expanded her sculptural vocabulary and allowed her to experiment with the material in new ways. Gaskinâs expertise was crucial in achieving the fine details and smooth surfaces that Hepworth sought in her bronze works. Hepworthâs relationship with Gaskin was not just professional but also personal, as they worked closely together on several major projects. Their collaboration was built on mutual respect, with Gaskin deeply understanding Hepworth's vision for her sculptures and her need for a high level of precision and craftsmanship. Hepworth trusted Gaskin to maintain the integrity of her designs throughout the casting process, which could sometimes involve multiple iterations to achieve the perfect result. The Art Bronze Foundry, located in London, was a key collaborator in Hepworthâs later works, particularly in casting her sculptures in bronze. The foundry was known for its high-quality work, and Hepworthâs relationship with the foundry was a turning point in her ability to create large-scale sculptures in metal. Before working with Gaskin and the Art Bronze Foundry, Hepworth had primarily worked with materials like wood, stone, and plaster. The decision to move into bronze casting marked an important shift in her practice. She was able to expand the scale of her work and explore the fluidity and versatility that bronze offered. The foundry played a pivotal role in transforming her small maquettes and models into finished sculptures, often with complex casting processes, including lost-wax casting, to preserve the details of Hepworthâs original designs.

BARBARA HEPWORTH
Est: CHF60,000 - CHF80,000
BARBARA HEPWORTH (Wakefield 1903–1975 St Ives) Three forms (Extra eye). 1969. Polished Bronze. Signed, dated, numbered and with foundry stamp below on the plinth: Barbara Hepworth 1969 5/9 MS. H 20 cm. Provenance: - With Gimpel & Hanover Galerie, Zurich. - Private collection, Switzerland, acquired on 18.11.1975 from the above gallery and thence by descent. Literature: Alan Bowness: The complete sculpture of Barbara Hepworth 1960–1969, London 1971, pp. 48/49, no. 487 (different cast in illustration). Hailed by The Guardian in 1975 as "probably the most important artist in art history," Barbara Hepworth was a pioneer of modern and abstract art. In the 1960s she experienced a surge in productivity and, inspired by international recognition and new technical possibilities, created 227 works. The transition from stone sculpture, which Hepworth pursued primarily in the early years of her career, to bronze casting in the late 1950s, allowed the artist to explore the versatility of the medium and return to geometric shapes like circles, rectangles and squares. Her sculptures, which often consist of several parts, invite interaction and integration, as in the monumental works “Squares with two Circles” and “Four-Square (Walk Through)”. But even in smaller works like “Three Forms (Extra Eye)”, the involvement of the viewer is clear. The work comprises two squares and a rectangle in harmonious equilibrium. In order to encourage interaction and play with the light, these are pierced by cylinders. By this time, Hepworth had cemented her status as a giant of British art alongside contemporaries such as Henry Moore and Ben Nicholson. Tragically, she died six years after this work was created; so this sculpture may be counted as one of the artist's late works. ------------------------------------------------- BARBARA HEPWORTH (Wakefield 1903–1975 St Ives) Three forms (Extra eye). 1969. Polierte Bronze. Unten am Sockel signiert, datiert, nummeriert und mit dem Giesserstempel: Barbara Hepworth 1969 5/9 MS. H 20 cm. Provenienz: - Gimpel & Hanover Galerie, Zürich. - Privatsammlung Schweiz, am 18.11.1975 in obiger Galerie erworben und durch Erbschaft an die heutigen Besitzer. Literatur: Alan Bowness: The complete sculpture of Barbara Hepworth 1960–1969, London 1971, S. 48/49, Nr. 487 (mit Abb. anderer Guss). Barbara Hepworth, die 1975 von The Guardian als "wahrscheinlich bedeutendste Künstlerin der Kunstgeschichte" gefeiert wurde, gilt als Pionierin der modernen und abstrakten Kunst. In den 1960er Jahren, beflügelt von internationaler Anerkennung und neuen technischen Möglichkeiten, schafft Hepworth 227 Werke. Der Übergang von der Steinbildhauerei, der Hepworth vor allem in den ersten Jahren ihrer Karriere nachgeht, zum Bronzeguss in den späten 1950er Jahren ermöglicht es der Künstlerin, die Vielseitigkeit des Mediums zu erkunden und zu geometrischen Formen wie Kreisen, Rechtecken und Quadraten zurückzukehren. Ihre Skulpturen, die oft aus mehreren Teilen bestehen, laden zur Interaktion und Integration ein, so in monumentalen Werken wie "Squares with two Circles" und "Four-Square (Walk Through)". Aber auch bei kleineren Arbeiten wie der vorliegenden Plastik "Three Forms (Extra Eye)" ist die Einbeziehung der Betrachtenden offensichtlich. Das Werk zeigt zwei Quadrate und ein Rechteck in harmonischem Gleichgewicht. Um die Interaktion und das Spiel mit dem Licht zu fördern werden diese von Zylindern durchbrochen. Zu dieser Zeit hat Hepworth ihren Status als Gigantin der britischen Kunst neben Zeitgenossen wie Henry Moore und Ben Nicholson bereits gefestigt. Tragischerweise stirbt sie sechs Jahre nach der Entstehung des Werkes, weshalb diese Skulptur zum Spätwerk der Künstlerin gezählt werden kann.
