LITERATURE
The New York Times , "Two Soviet Emigres Whose Art Is Overlaid with Irony," January 29, 1984, section 2, p. 25 (illustrated)
LOT NOTES
The present work is closely related to the 1986 Stalin Monument at The Hague, featuring an oversize bust of the Soviet dictator enclosed in a phone booth. The sculpture also makes an appearance in the artists' 1982-1983 painting Natasha with Bust of Stalin (part of a series heavily influenced by the Stalinist Empire style and the aesthetics of Georges de La Tour), which pictures a nude woman seated in the dark, as if in prayer, holding up a candlestick to illuminate Stalin's features.
CONDITION
Beyond some surface dirt and a nick to the center of the right cheek, the sculpture appears in excellent original condition with no issues to report.
