Post lot text

‘Seeking not to replicate pre-existing organisms but to construct new creatures and beings, relying solely on his instinct and manual proficiency’, Chadwick redefined the way human forms can be represented in sculpture (N. Rogers, exhibition catalogue, Lynn Chadwick: Evolution in Sculpture, Abbot Hall Art Gallery and Blackwell, 2013, p. 6).

In Two Winged Figures, the figures stand side by side with their wings bellowing out behind them. Although static in their stance, each with three legs grounded to the floor, the extension of their wings evokes a great sense of movement. Dennis Farr and the artist’s wife, Eva, discussed the importance of movement in his work, stating, ‘Chadwick has always been intrigued by movement, either actual or implied, in his sculpture. From his early mobiles to his dancing Teddy Boy and Girl series of the 1950s to his cloaked walking women with windswept hair of the 1980s, he has explored figures in motion. Sometimes their cloaks and draperies flow out in the wind from behind them, or are caught by a gust and wrap themselves around the figures. This essentially lateral progression gives place to a vertical rhythm in his groups of, usually two, figures’ (D. Farr & E. Chadwick, Lynn Chadwick Sculptor, Farnham, 2014, p. 15).
