Untitled Sculpture by Robert Clatworthy RA (1928 - 2015)
A large-scale abstract wooden sculpture by British artist Robert Clatworthy RA (1928–2015). Tall and slender, the work has a strongly vertical, almost architectural presence, its irregular modelling characteristic of Clatworthy’s direct and expressive approach to form. Provenance: gifted directly by the artist to the previous owner’s partner.
Clatworthy was a significant figure in post-war British sculpture. He studied under Bernard Meadows, worked as an assistant to Henry Moore and taught alongside a generation that included Anthony Caro, Elisabeth Frink and Eduardo Paolozzi. He was elected a Royal Academician in 1973, and his work is represented in collections including Tate and the V&A.
