Composed of disjointed saxophones divided and stacked in the fashion of a pyramid, this tower of music relays the impression of ordered chaos. This stunning work retains a sense of animation, as if we can almost imagine the soulful music produced by the subject of this glistening bronze sculpture. |

| Descripción Histórica: | |
Created in 1994, this work is entitled Double Châssis and is cast in bronze by Bocquel who also served as the publisher for the work. The sculpture is embossed on the upper portion of the base. Hand-signed and etched into the bronze base by Fernandez Arman (Nice, 1928 – New York, 2005) and numbered 45/140 by publisher Bocquel along the side. Exploring the formal advantages of sculpture, Arman (Nice, 1928 – New York, 2005) offers a detailed study of multiple saxophones which divide revealing a repetition of the same form. With each additional saxophone, Arman introduces a new variant, creating a melodic quality, punctuated by slight alterations of pitch. The artist's extreme attention to the technical aspects of the instrument reveal his love of music and the emotional range evoked by the distinct tones of this particular instrument.

Arman biografía
Arman (1928 - 2005)
Armand Fernandez. French born sculptor who settled in New York in 1963 and became an American citizen in 1972. He was born in Nice and studied briefly in Paris at the Ecole des Arts Decoratifs and the Ecole du Louvre. In 1957, with his friend Yves Klein, he decided to be known by his first name only, and the form 'Arman' was adopted in 1958 as the result of a printer's error on the cover of a catalogue. Like Klein, he was interested in Japanese culture, particularly Zen Buddhism, and (again like Klein) he worked for a time as a judo instructor. In the early 1960s Arman gained a reputation as one of the leading exponents of Nouveau Réalisme and he is best known for his assemblages of junk material. These range from modest collections of household debris (Accumulation of Sliced Teapots, Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, 1964) to a huge tower (about 20 meters high) of 60 automobiles embedded in cement (Long-Term Parking, Cartier Museum, jouy-en-josas, 1982).
