Bronze sculpture, 'The Leap' (Brazil)
Leaping lithely, a slender couple whirls in a joyous dance. Goga's airy sculpture seems to transport them to the sky to waltz amid clouds. Polished bronze contours gleam in the light to contrast with dark oxidized surfaces that highlight its three-dimensionality. It results in a mesmerizing modern work. Titled O salto in Portuguese, it stands on a granite base.
