Arsham, Daniel | Eroded 911 Turbo Figure (white), 2020 — available on Composition Gallery

Stone, resin - Unsigned

Daniel Arsham’s Eroded 911 Turbo Figure (White) (2020) is a striking sculpture that reimagines the iconic Porsche 911 Turbo through his signature technique of erosion. Made from a combination of stone and resin, the white figure is rendered with parts of the car appearing worn and decayed, transforming a symbol of speed and luxury into an archaeological artifact of the future. The detailed craftsmanship captures the sleek design of the car, while the eroded sections suggest the passage of time, blending the familiar with the timeless. Arsham’s work often invites contemplation on how objects from the present will be viewed in the distant future, and this limited edition figure is a powerful continuation of that theme.

Daniel Arsham (USA, 1980) is a multidisciplinary artist whose work blends sculpture, architecture, and performance to explore themes of time, decay, and nostalgia. Known for his 'fictional archaeology' approach, Arsham creates eroded objects like phones and cameras, reimagining them as artifacts. His innovative practice bridges contemporary art and design, captivating audiences worldwide.

What is pop-art?

Pop Art is an art movement that began in Britain in 1955 and in the late 1950s in the U.S. It challenged traditional fine arts by incorporating imagery from popular culture, such as news, advertising, and comic books. Pop Art often isolates and recontextualizes materials, combining them with unrelated elements. The movement is more about the attitudes and ideas that inspired it than the specific art itself. Pop Art is seen as a reaction against the dominant ideas of Abstract Expressionism, bringing everyday consumer culture into the realm of fine art.
