About Tête au miroir

“Tête au miroir” is a sculpture created by the artist Julio Gonzalez in 1934, and it is part of the Cubism art movement. The artwork exemplifies the Cubist approach through its abstract form and geometric simplicity, characteristic of the genre during that period.

The sculpture features a vertical, elongated structure mounted on a rough, textured base resembling natural stone. The upper part of the sculpture consists of a semi-circular element that extends outward, culminating in a circular disc that appears to function as a mirror. Intricate, curved extensions emerge from the top, evoking the sense of hair or feathers, adding to the whimsical and abstract nature of the piece. The interplay of smooth and rugged textures, alongside the thoughtful composition of shapes, underscores the influence of Cubism in Gonzalez’s work.
