CHEMA MADOZ (Madrid, 1958)"Untitled. 1992.Black and white photography.It has a label from the Madrid gallery Moriarty, on the back.Size: 33 x 33 cm; 62 x 52 cm (frame).Visual paradox is the fertile ground in which Chema Madoz moves. His way of interpreting art through photography and his poetic vision make Madoz one of the most interesting, influential and recognisable creators on the contemporary art scene. Emphasising the irony that underlies the objects and the hidden relationships between them. In a surrealistic search for new meanings, through which to let the imagination wander towards new paths. Playing with the everyday, generating associations, metamorphoses, in a playful background, he generates a singular strangeness. His artistic work has been described as "analytical photography or visual trope" and his visual style as "surreal rationality or the logic of the oneiric", to refer to the compositions of objects that are the protagonists of his works - in the words of the philosopher and art historian Luis Arenas. Madoz manipulates, invents and photographs objects. Defined as a visual poet, the associations he develops from objects as commonplace as a key, a stone or a ladder lead to a torrent of creativity. In 1999 the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía presented the exhibition Madoz. Objects 1990-1999, the first solo exhibition that the museum dedicated to a living Spanish photographer. Internationally, he has exhibited at institutions such as the Centre Pompidou in Paris, the Nederlands Fotomuseum in Rotterdam, the Fondazione M. Marangoni in Florence, the Museo de Bellas Artes in Caracas and the Multimedia Art Museum in Moscow. He has received the National Photography Award and the PHotoEspaña Award in 2000, and the Culture Award of the Community of Madrid in the category of Photography in 2012, among others.

ANCIENT CELTIC STONE HEAD UNITED KINGDOM, LIKELY 1ST CENTURY B.C. carved and weathered red sandstone, of powerful visage, with arched brows, deeply set eyes and broad triangular nose, the mouth bearing an enigmatic smile with a broad moustache covering the upper lip(24cm tall)Provenance: Originally uncovered during the digging of a wall at Sharpcliffe Hall, Staffordshire, United Kingdom. The site is situated in the immediate vicinity of prehistoric structures uncovered by men working in a gravel pit in 1910. Subsequently part of a private collection, United Kingdom. Note: Stone votive heads are perhaps the most enigmatic of all the art produced by the Iron Age peoples of Britain, Ireland and continental Europe, often termed “Celts”. Frequently found near bodies of water, their function is not clear, suggestions have included their use as surrogates in head hunting societies, cult foci, or as venerated objects of healing. The ubiquity of the head motif sculpted in stone or carved in metal suggests that the ancient Britons held it in special reverence, likely believing it to be the centre of the soul. The present example epitomises the simple lines imbued with great power that defines ancient Celtic art. The individual depicted, whether deity or human subject, has an undeniable presence. The style of the finely backcombed hair and moustache, well-groomed and reaching across much of the face, bears a strong similarity to those seen on three small copper alloy models of men's faces uncovered at two Late Iron Age burials (c. 50 – 20 B.C.) in Welwyn in 1906 and now housed at the British Museum (accession number 1911,1208.5). The facial character depicted in both the present piece and the Welwyn fittings is reflected in the contemporaneous record of the Greek writer Diodorus Siculus when discussing the physical appearance of the Gauls, the British Celts continental cousins in the 1st century B.C.: “The Gauls are tall of body with rippling muscles and white of skin and their hair is blond, and not only naturally so for they also make it their practice by artificial means to increase the distinguishing colour which nature has given it. For they are always washing their hair in limewater and they pull it back from the forehead to the nape of the neck, with the result that their appearance is like that of Satyrs and Pans since the treatment of their hair makes it so heavy and coarse that it differs in no respect from the mane of horses. Some of them shave the beard but others let it grow a little; and the nobles shave their cheeks, but they let the moustache grow until it covers the mouth.” His haunting smile is relatively unusual, with a thin slit mouth more common amongst Celtic sculpture of the period. One notable parallel is the Hendy Head (displayed at Oriel Môn), discovered in a field on Anglesey during the 1950’s. Carved of red sandstone and dating to the late Iron Age, it likely depicts a Celtic deity worshipped at a local shrine, the mouth has a drilled opening to one side for libations and is formed into a similarly unsettling smile. The power of ancient Celtic art lies in its ability to sit between the recognisable and the otherworldly. The fact that this piece’s exact its meaning is lost to us perhaps adds to this ethereal quality.
MĀORI HEI-TIKI PENDANT NEW ZEALAND, 19TH CENTURY OR EARLIER carved and polished inanga pounamu, successive tapering perforation holes, with the original now worn through, the stone fine and quite translucent, with carved features, the head angled with recessed eyes originally for the insertion of shell inlays, the hands shown held to the legs, with two horizontal lozenges indicating the feet(10.5cm tall)Note: The surface wear and collapsed perforation on the present example suggest extensive use and age. The positioning of the original (now worn through) hole suggests it may have sat as a rounded tab above the head as found in a select number produced on the South Island (Austin:2020 p.129).
