The whole with verdigris streaking- quite crude construction and variance of materials/finish applied has caused further variance in verdigris patination particularly to joint sections.

Morio Nishimura. (1960 Tokio). Süßer Regen - Oblivion B3. 2012. Weißlich patinierte Bronze. 20 x 33 x 33 cm. Auf der Standfläche signiert, datiert, nummeriert sowie betitelt. - Auf der Standfläche mit recht unscheinbaren Rückständen vorheriger Aufstellung. Insgesamt sehr gut. Prachtvoller Abguss mit wirkungsvoll strukturierter Patina. Das erste von nur 3 Exemplaren. - Provenienz: Deutsche Privatsammlung, erworben bei Beck & Eggeling International Fine Art. - Ausstellungen: 'The Unknown', 3. Meditations Biennale Poznan, Polen, 14. September - 14. Oktober 2012. - Morio Nishimura. Oblivion. Zugang zum Paradies, Beck & Eggeling Düsseldorf, 2. März - 6. April 2013. - Nach dem Studium der Bildhauerei an der TAMA ART University Tokio bis 1985 studierte Morio Nishimura von 1992-95 an der Kunstakademie Düsseldorf mit Abschluss als Meisterschüler bei Günther Uecker. - Die Lotusblüte stellt das Hauptmotiv der bildhauerischen Arbeit Nishimuras dar. Hierbei geht es dem Künstler jedoch nicht um eine realistische Darstellung der Blüte, vielmehr sieht er in ihr ein Symbol, welches ihm eine Vorstellung der metaphysischen Existenz des Universums verleiht. Der Titel "Süßer Regen" ist die Übersetzung des japanischen Kanro-Regens, ein sehr feiner Niederschlag, beinahe eine Art Nebel, welcher die Lotusblüten sich in den Himmel strecken lässt, um die feinen Tropfen mit ihrer Oberfläche aufzunehmen. Whitish patinated bronze. Signed, dated, numbered and titled on the base. - With rather inconspicuous residue from previous installation on the base. Very good overall. Splendid cast with effectively textured patina. - The first of only 3 copies. - Provenance: German private collection, acquired from Beck & Eggeling International Fine Art. - After studying sculpture at the TAMA ART University in Tokyo until 1985, Morio Nishimura studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf from 1992-95, graduating as a master student of Günther Uecker. - The lotus blossom is the main motif of Nishimura's sculptural work. However, the artist is not interested in a realistic depiction of the blossom, rather he sees it as a symbol that gives him an idea of the metaphysical existence of the universe. The title "Sweet Rain" is the translation of the Japanese Kanro rain, a very fine rainfall, almost a kind of mist, which makes the lotus blossoms stretch up into the sky to absorb the fine drops with their surface.
