Sophie Ryder (British, born 1963)Maquette for Paintpots signed, numbered and dated 'AC1 Ryder 2001' (on the base)bronze with a grey patina60.3 cm (23 3/4 in.) wideAn Artist's cast aside from the edition of 9Footnotes:ProvenanceThe Artist, from whom acquired by the present owner in 2015Private Collection, U.K.Jonathan Benington discusses the present work, the origins of which stem to a 2001 trip which Ryder made to Canada. He elaborates 'During their stay in British Columbia, the family visited the Rockies and came across a magical place known as Paint Pots, where Native Canadians had once extracted natural ochre bubbling up out of large pools in the ground in order to use it in their paintings' (Jonathan Benington, Sophie Ryder, Lund Humphries, Farnham, 2001, p.114). A series of drawings on the theme was produced in which Ryder's familiar Lady Hare beings are composed against ochre backgrounds. The idea was then translated into the present maquette and a life-sized bronze.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Tillim, Arts Magazine, December 1961, p.49Bryan Robertson, Elisabeth Frink, Sculpture: Catalogue Raisonné, Harpvale Press, Salisbury, 1984, cat.no.75, p.153 (ill.b&w., another cast)Annette Ratuszniak, Elisabeth Frink, Catalogue Raisonné of Sculpture 1947-93, Lund Humphries, London, 2013, cat.no.FCR93, pp.76-77 (ill.b&w., another cast)Elisabeth Frink has been associated with the 'Geometry of Fear' group, a term coined by Herbert Read in 1952 to describe the work of eight British artists represented in the New Aspects of British Sculpture exhibition at the Venice Biennale of 1952. This original group of artists, which did not contain Frink, exhibited angular, jagged, rough-textured, or spiky work which was seen to reflect the angst, anxiety and guilt of the immediate Post-War period. The influence of the movement can be seen on the work of Frink throughout the 1950s and 60s, with the bird motif playing a key role in her output. The group of birds to which the present work belongs have been described as follows: 'The Harbinger Birds show how Frink worked the plaster very quickly, building up with an almost assemblage-type approach, at times using sections of dried plaster from containers and creating slab-like planes that add menace to these zoomorphic birds that symbolise the foreshadowing of destruction' (Annette Ratuszniak, Elisabeth Frink, Catalogue Raisonné of Sculpture 1947-93, Lund Humphries, London, 2013, p.77)Other casts from this edition are in the Jerwood Gallery and Salford Museum & Art Gallery collections.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
