Modernist Architectural Candlestick By Roger Bonduel

Very large modernist architectural 4-armed candlestick by the Belgian sculptor Roger Bonduel (1930-2019) in welded and patinated steel. This candlestick is modularly constructed from 4 parts with a central attachment point, allowing you to play with the order and heights of the arms. Made by Bonduel for a modernist chapel in Belgium, unique piece. From 1961 to 1966, Roger Bonduel taught visual art at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bruges. Bonduel became best known for its sculptures, furniture, and bas-reliefs. He used nickel, copper, steel, silver, brass and bronze. He played an important role in the revival of religious art. Known for his mastery of metal, Bonduel, who collaborated with modernist architect Paul Felix and glass artist Michel Martens, brought energy and movement to each piece he created.
