The fgurative sculptures of Spanish artist Juan Muñoz, who is a self-acknowledged storyteller, combine a personal exploration of human experience with a theatricality, synthesizing an emotional calm with the cerebral. Size plays a key conceptual role in all of Muñoz’s sculptures, as the slightly smaller than life-size fgures isolate themselves from the spectator, creating a sense of exclusion from the viewer. However, the present lot carries with it a unique sense of vertical scale, featuring one fgure on the shoulders of another.
