Marcelisa
Miguel Ortiz Berrocal (1996)
Glasfiber med bronze på en glassokkel.
Skulpturen forestiller en abstrakt kvindeskikkelse.
Selvom den vejer 1.700 kilo, ligger den graciøst og slænger sig ovenpå en sokkel af hærdet glas, så det giver illusionen af, at hun svæver over jorden.
Marcelisa flyttede ind i Slotshaven i oktober 1996, efter at Prins Henrik havde købt hende under en rejse til Italien, hvor kunstneren havde bopæl.
Marcelisa er en ud af en serie på tre værker, 'Nudes in the Landscapes'. De to andre står henholdsvis i Bordeaux (Petita) og Valencia (Alcudia).
-----
Fibreglass with bronze on a glass pedestal.
The sculpture depicts an abstract female figure.
Despite weighing 1,700 kilos, she lies gracefully, reclining atop a pedestal made of tempered glass, creating the illusion that she is floating above the ground.
Marcelisa moved into the Palace Garden in October 1996, after Prince Henrik purchased her during a trip to Italy, where the artist was residing at the time.
Marcelisa is part of a series of three works titled Nudes in the Landscapes. The other two are located in Bordeaux (Petita) and Valencia (Alcudia).
