Otterness, Tom. "Untiteld". (1954-) Acclaimed sculptor and artist, Otterness started working with lost wax and bronze to create public art installations. Often inhabiting parks, center squares and transportation infrastructures, Otterness' sculptures tend towards the comedic. They are cartoonish and cheeky, nodding at art history, pop culture, capitalism, greed and satire. To date, Otterness is one of the most successful public artists world-wide. His most amazing works can be seen in a spectacular permanent installation at Nelson Rockefeller State Park, Battery Park City, New York. One of the sculptures there is called Nero's apartment. On the top "floor" of the fanciful tilted apartment is the sculpture offered here. These were a limited edition of only 9 offered in 1991. In excellent condition. 3¾ x 8 x 5" Signed initials and numbered #4 of 9. Estimated Value $4,200 - UP
