Sculpture - Constantin Brancusi Exhibition Center - Chisinau
Natalya Vlasova — Socialist Modernist
Description
Life-sized sculptures of women – perhaps muses – adorn the facade of the Constantin Brâncuși Exhibition Center in Chișinău. Each figure is cast in metal, appearing to float just above ground level. The figures wear long, draped garments with cinched waists and soft folds. The figures do not directly interact but echo each other in posture and styling. These sculptures stem from artist Natalya Vlasova according to a Google Review. Positioned by the United Nations Square, not far from Hotel Chișinău and Hotel Național. I love the drab setting of these figures set against a modernist building, itself part of a more standard panel housing complex. Quite a scene.
