Przypuszczam, że jest to pośmiertly odlew zaskakującej formą bardzo nowoczesnej kompozycji. Rynek to docenił.
Lot 87. Jean LAMBERT-RUCKI (1888-1967). La fille au ballon. Épreuve en bronze à patine brune, acier laqué noir et rouge Signée “J Lambert-Rucki”, numérotée “5/8” et porte le cachet du fondeur “AJM” Hauteur : 113 cm Un certificat d’authenticité sera remis à l’acquéreur.

Lubomir Tomaszewski swoją wyobraźnią widział w znalezionym kamieniu czy kawałku drzewa nieprzewidywaną dla innych rzeźbę, powstałą po małej modyfikacji i dodaniu zaplanowanych elementów wykonanych z miedzi. Rzadko jego rzeźby pojawiają sie na rynku a pasowac mogą do wystroju nowoczesnego mieszkania, domu czy ogrodu.
Lot 531. LUBOMIR TOMASZEWSKI (POLISH/AMERICAN, 1923-2018), STONE AND METAL WARRIOR 47 1/2 (height to top of head) x 20 x 9 1/2 in. (120.7 x 50.8 x 24.1 cm.). Estimate $1,500 – 2,000. The Potomac Company. 09/28/23. Sold $2,750
Lot 102. A limited edition figural bronze art sculpture by Jean Lambert Rucki (French, 1888-1967). A posthumous bronze casting with black patina. Titled, “La Foule” (“The Crowd”). The work produced in Art Deco style depicting five Cubist inspired figures with abstract facial features. The plaster version, produced between 1923 and 1925, is illustrated in the book, “Jean Lambert-Ruchi,” by Jacques De Vos, Marc-Andre Ruan, and Jean Pierre Tortil (Paris, 1988). Impressed signature and dated to base side J LAMBERT RUCKI 2006, with edition number and foundry name CANDIDE BRONZE D’ART PARIS 3 of 8 to perpendicular side. Presented on a rectangular black base. Accompanied by copy of French language Certificate of Authenticity from GALERIE JACQUE DE VOS (Paris), both dated 1993. Sculpture measures approximately 41″ x 26″ x 16″. Base measures approximately 19″ x 30″ x 16″. The combined total measurements including work with base is 60″ tall. Estimate $30,000 – 60,000. Hill Auction Gallery. 09/27/23. Sold $30,000
O ile rozumiem, rzeźba została odlana w 2006 roku natomiast “Certificate of Authenticity” GALERIE JACQUE DE VOS” wydrukowało już w 1993 roku. Pewnie wystarczy na tym certyfikacie wpisać numer egzemplarza i rok wykonania odlewu. To można nazwać dobrym planowaniem. Czekamy na odlewy z 2023 roku z certyfikatem z 1993 roku. Z drugiej strony, rzeźba jest duża wymiarami, waży odpowiednio i tylko bardzo zapalony polski kolekcjoner i miłośnik twórczości Lambert-Ruckiego odważy się na zakup. Oczywiście, nie tylko Polacy mogą być zainteresowani.
Jean Lambert-Rucki. Woman and bird

Ta rzeźba Wacława Szczeblewskiego była dla mnie sporym zaskoczeniem. Na rynkach, polskim i zagranicznym dominuje do znudzenia ‘Gwiżdżący chłopiec‘. Rzeźba tego chłopca była powielana w nieskończoność, jak Perseusz Mitoraja, i stała się z czasem obiektem charakteryzującym twórczość Szczeblewskiego. Czasami pojawi się na rynku inna praca tego artysty lecz ta z dzisiejszej aukcji swoim tematem, detalami przekroczyła moje ubogie oczekiwania. Handlarz kurczakami zaskakuje nie tylko dość wysoką ceną za którą został wylicytowany. Biografia Szczeblewskiego jest dość uboga a przedział lat życia i twórczości dla mnie jest niepewny. Warto szperać po katalogach by dać się zaskoczyć.

To dość niezwykła kolekcja rzeźb Igora Mitoraja na sukcji w Amero Auctions na Florydzie. Większość rzeźb, za wyjątkiem dwóch, to prace niskonakładowe, właściwie wykonane w kilku egzemplarzach. W późniejszym okresie, chyba francuski Artcurial zabrał się za masową produkcję niektórych spośród nich i te (w zasadzie bezwartościowe) nakłady sięgają kilku tysięcy egzemplarzu i są w ciągłej sprzedaży, również w Polsce. Rzeźby z obecnej aukcji są chyba pomiejszone w stosunku do wielkich orginałów lecz ich zaletą jest ten niski nakład oraz wymiar pozwalający na ekspozycję w domu. Prezentuję je wszytkie z aukcji oczekując zaskoczenia w przebiciach bardzo niskich cen estymacyjnych.
