The sculptor, who would play a central role in Austrian and international postwar modernist sculpture, abandoned the restrained stylization of his earlier years and developed a new concept of composing the figure. Drawing on French Cubism yet demonstrating an independent design principle, this approach moves toward abstraction and a tectonic, and almost planar organization while remaining faithful to the basic form of the human figure. Visible traces of the sculptor\u2019s hand give the strictly frontal, monumental composition a rugged, rock-like appearance, emphasizing the material presence of the stone."},"medium":{"label":"Medium","value":"Mannersdorf limestone"},"onview":{"label":"On View","value":"0"},"media":{"label":"Media","value":["https://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/internal/media/dispatcher/165559/full"]},"title":{"label":"Title","value":"Large Seated Figure (\"Human Cathedral\")"},"classification":{"label":"Genre","value":"Sculpture"},"primaryMedia":{"label":"PrimaryMedia","value":"https://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/internal/media/dispatcher/162472/full"},"displayDate":{"label":"Date","value":"1949"},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"11407686"},"iiifManifest":{"value":"https://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/apis/iiif/presentation/v2/1-objects-3524/manifest"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"153 × 79 × 73 cm, 510 kg"}}]}
