Swum (2011) is a commanding sculptural work by Brad Howe that demonstrates the artist's remarkable ability to coax fluid, organic movement from industrial materials. Standing over two meters tall, the piece is constructed from aluminum and polyurethane, combining the precision of fabricated metal with the visual warmth and tactile suggestion of painted surface. The result is a form that appears to twist and arc through space with the effortless grace implied by its title, inviting the viewer to move around it and experience how its contours shift and reveal themselves from multiple vantage points. Howe's practice is rooted in a deep engagement with the dialogue between abstraction and physical sensation, and Swum exemplifies this sensibility with particular confidence. The work belongs to a body of sculpture that draws on the traditions of mid-century constructivism while pushing firmly into a contemporary idiom defined by expressive gesture and bold formal invention. The artist's use of polyurethane allows for a richness of color and surface that softens the inherent hardness of aluminum, creating a tension between material weight and visual lightness that animates the entire composition. For collectors, Swum represents a significant opportunity to acquire a large-scale signed work from a period of strong creative output in Howe's career. The sculpture holds its own in institutional settings while retaining the intimacy needed for a private collection, and its scale, approximately 84 by 40 by 22 inches, ensures genuine presence within any architectural context. The work is currently available through Adamar Fine Arts.
