Brutalist wall sculpture with birds Ars Munda

Three elongated birds rise above each other in this striking wall sculpture from the 1960s or 70s. The work is attributed to the German artist collective Ars Munda and features the powerful, almost primitive visual language so characteristic of brutalism. The birds are highly stylised, with tall necks, sharp beaks and fan-shaped feather details. The openwork sections keep the composition airy despite its generous height. The wall becomes a visible part of the work and changes with the light. The surface is roughly modelled and rich in irregular structures. The dark finish emphasises every line and depth, making the relief appear differently from various angles. The combination of rough texture and graceful bird shapes gives the sculpture its unique character. The wall sculpture is made of cast resin and has a flat finished back with a hanging bracket. The work has been carefully cleaned and is in well-kept vintage condition, with signs of use appropriate to its age and handmade nature. A striking art object that stands out beautifully on a calm wall, where light and shadow can play freely.
