Sculptures by Pablo Reinoso


Huge Sudeley Bench by Pablo Reinoso at the Sotheby's selling exhibition at Sudeley Castle. As impressive in scale and ambition as its name suggests, Huge Sudeley Bench. was commissioned especially for the Sotheby's at Sudeley Castle .exhibition. It represents the first time that Reinoso has worked on this monumental scale, overseeing a team of foundry technicians who employed hydraulic machinery to manipulate lengths of steel girder into exuberant and free flowing forms. Reinoso refers to this process as 'breathing sculpture', referencing the manner in which Calder adapted his mobiles while at the same time acknowledging its architectural properties. Commenting on his early training as a sculptor, Reinoso has stated his will to go beyond prescribed boundaries, 'boundaries you need to know but you don't need to respect'. Huge Sudeley Bench .was created in three individual sections and treated with black autobody paint, a decision made to ensure that future generations could refresh its surfaces and appreciate the work in the pristine state it first left the foundry. It also sees the introduction of Reinoso's new artist's monogram which he intends to apply to all his future creations.
