LUCITE SKYSCRAPER LAMP SCULPTURE CITYSCAPE Karl Springer Paul Evans Hollis-Jones

Description: This beautiful illuminated art sculpture has the quintessential Halston / Studio 54 1970’s MOD vibe…reminiscent of not only KARL SPRINGER, VAN TEAL, CHARLES HOLLIS JONES, PAUL EVANS, and JEFFREY BIGELOW, but also RITTS/ ASTROLITE — and fabulously complements many Mid Century Modernists, from Vladimir Kagan, Curtis Jere, and Sonneman. We used it in a room that was mainly streamline moderne / art deco (Alfons Bach, Bel Geddes, Kem Weber and Wolfgang Hoffmann), with a few Ralph Lauren Modern Metropolis / Duke rosewood pieces. THE DETAILS: A Stunning architectural piece crafted of clear and frosted acrylic/ Lucite. The sculpture is able to be lit from underneath as the middle section lifts up to allow portable, battery-operated LED lights (6 are included) to place under the center, creating a true showstopper focal point. These LED lights are operated by a remote (also included), so that one may customize the lighting effect for any mood/ ambiance. Whether lit in this manner, or using only standard lighting (table lamps ot overhead) or no outside illumination whatsoever, this exceptional piece looks wonderful as table sculpture. Measures 24” square (width & depth) x 18” high and we “guess-timate” its total weight somewhere in the 75-100 pound range. (Sorry we can’t be specific as a fractured shoulder limits our ability to move it). There may be a signature on this piece — somewhere— but we do not recall ever seeing one. Having never seen another piece like this one, we believe it may be a custom, one of a kind work — but that is mere conjecture on our part. CONDITION: Very Good overall, commensurate with age and use. A few light scratches to the Lucite / acrylic… one or two of the small sandblasted cubes are not glued down. One corner underside lacks the (approx) 5/8”cube. NOTE: The other pieces in these photos — Viktor Schreckengost, Richard Florsheim’s skyline lithographs, and the Simmons mirror have been listed separately.
