Hugo Van der Vekens (Belgian, born 1933) – Untitled Abstract Figural Composition, 1975

Description

An original carved stone sculpture by Belgian sculptor Hugo Van der Vekens, presenting a highly stylized abstract figural composition formed from smooth, interlocking organic volumes. The sculpture combines rounded anthropomorphic shapes with carefully conceived negative spaces, creating a balanced and dynamic silhouette, while the circular central element provides a strong visual focal point. The work is carved from a pale, naturally porous limestone consistent with Pierre de France, a material documented in other sculptures by the artist. The lower section bears an incised H.V. monogram together with the date 1975, confirming the year of execution.
