Igor Mitoraj: Centauro
1984 | bronze | Montgomery Square (exterior) | Art Map reference: E6
Mitoraj’s Centauro shows the great mythological beast partially incomplete but ready for battle. Despite often working on a monumental scale, Mitoraj’s unique artistic vocabulary is articulated through allowing parts to convey the whole, as he put it, “I feel that a piece of arm or a leg speak far more strongly than a whole body.”
