Wolfgang Alexander Kossuth - Standing Nude with a Jug

The human figure has always been at the center of artistic research. Since the age
classical naturalistic rendering of human anatomy was one of the goals
main works of painters and sculptors of all times. The representation of the nude is the
maximum expression of this aspiration, transversal to all eras and
all stylistic currents. In fact, in addition to naturalistic interpretations,
typical of the Renaissance and of the various classicisms, which aim at a
truthful and detailed representation of the human body, the nude was
protagonist also within the new aesthetic concepts brought by the
historical avant-gardes, such as cubism, expressionism and
surrealism.

The work is an example of one of the beautiful studies that the sculptor Alexander
Kossuth dedicated himself to research on the female form and the human figure in
general. Research that the artist directs towards volumes and movement. This
This particular work demonstrates how much Kossuth's classical training
was fundamental in his career. The artist pursues an ideal of
pure, harmonious beauty, through the creation of a balanced volume,
almost geometric within the composition, but which comes to life thanks to
a soft model that softens its shapes. We can appreciate
how the artist uses a dynamic and vibrant tempera application, for
to infuse vitality into an otherwise statuesque figure. In this way
the image is essential, but, at the same time, endowed with great strength
expressive and plastic connotation.
