Hubert Dalwood - Modern Art
«Until 1956 Dalwood was a sculptor of figures — figures that were boldly, even brutally, re-formed to coincide with artist’s intention, but later adopted an abstract imagery, shedding gradually such reminiscences of the human body as remained in his sculptures. He worked in clay, modelling the surface by hand and leaving tell tale finger prints and marks, and casting pieces in bronze or aluminium. He tended to combine geometric shapes with surprising free forms, to juxtapose extreme differences of scale, and to ignore the then conventions of organic form relationships.»
