Gabor M Szoke Dante 2025Inclusief certificaatAfmetingen: 45 cm hoog x 19 cm breed x 23 cm lang / 17,71 inch hoog x 7,48 inch breed x 9,05 inch lang“This sculpture depicts Dante – my dog – who is a central figure in my personal mythology. The contrast of geometric shapes and metal screw heads represents a fusion of contemporary art and traditional motifs, alluding to ancient cultures where dogs were seen as guardians of the underworld.The sculpture is made of rustic, charred wood; the material itself evokes primal forces – burned, scarred, yet resilient – much like the myths that shape our inner worlds. Dante is also the guardian of my subconscious, traveling through cultures and minds.This piece captures not only the physical form of the dog, but also expresses the emotional depth of our bond, evoking systems of belief and mythology.”ABOUT THE ARTISTGabor M.

The geometric forms and the contrast of metallic gold buttons reflect a fusion of modern art and traditional motifs, alluding to ancient cultures where dogs symbolized loyalty and protection. Inspired by Dante's unwavering loyalty and guardian nature, this work celebrates the profound bond between dog and human. These smaller sculptures serve as miniature versions of the iconic studiöhonden, emphasizing their significance in my artistic narrative. The piece not only captures the physical form of the dog but also expresses the emotional depth of our relationship, reminding the viewer of the ancient myths and the important role dogs have played throughout history.”The item refers to 1 piece of a unique, handcrafted sculpture from the Dante Guardian Dog series.
