Roger Reutimann : Morte di Venere

The Death of Venus Sculpture.


"Art has become more of a commodity and investment tool; something that people by and hope it will be worth more in the future. In my sculpture the skull symbolizes those changes of cultural ideas and values. The shell from which she emerges is now closed, resembling a coffin. The Ferrari red auto paint is a representation of out fast living times of glitz and glamour yet to some degree the figure itself represents old traditions." - Roger Reutimann
