About The Star

“The Star,” a marble sculpture created by Jean Arp between circa 1939 and circa 1960, is an exemplary piece of Surrealist art. This artwork belongs to the genre of sculpture and is currently housed in a private collection.

The artwork, rendered in marble, features a fluid and organic form that evokes a sense of dynamic motion and ethereal elegance. Its design is characterized by smooth, flowing curves and a hollowed central void, which collectively suggest a star-like structure. The sculpture stands atop a cylindrical base, further enhancing its abstract and surreal quality. The surface of the marble is meticulously polished, offering a pristine, almost otherworldly appearance. The overall composition of “The Star” embodies the Surrealist movement’s fascination with the subconscious and the abstract, reflecting Jean Arp’s distinct artistic vision.
