Hook Torso by William Turnbull
From A Sense of Form: Property from a Private British Collection, this bronze sculpture by William Turnbull reflects his exploration of form and abstraction. Cast in 1982, Hook Torso exemplifies his distinctive approach to figurative representation. William Turnbull (1922–2012) was a Scottish sculptor and painter known for his minimalist and modernist approach to form.
Influenced by both ancient and non-Western art, as well as contemporary movements, his work often blurs the line between abstraction and figuration. A key figure in post-war British sculpture, Turnbull's career spanned several decades, with his works held in major international collections. The sculpture is signed with the artist’s monogram, dated 1980, and numbered 3/9 on the lower edge of the reverse. Conceived in 1980 and cast by Galizia in 1982, it is part of an edition of nine.
