About the Item

Linda Stein, Triumph 174 - Wood, Metal, Stone, Bone, Mixed Media Contemporary Sculpture In the 1980s, Linda Stein began a series called Ceremonial Scepters, where she imagined an excavation by anthropologists who discovered that a long-lost civilization existed centuries ago, with members of the community creating scepters used in their ritualistic ceremonies. According to the art dealer George W. Staempfli: "There are few ritual objects in the world which evoke as wide a range of associations in human beings as Scepters. In our fantasies they are intimately connected with ancient kingdoms, with feudal and magic personal power-fields, and they represent important concepts of traditional regal functions throughout different ages and tribal societies. Linda Stein is deeply aware of these underlying currents in her sculptural creations. The shapes and materials she fuses into primitive three-dimensional statements are alive with what C. G. Jung called 'inherited group subconscious.' Visually, they are stark, impressive works, pared down to essential forms related to trees, roots or bones, and ennobled by the hands of distant rulers or shamans." Stein's works are in more than 25 museum permanent collections, including Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Georgia Museum of Art, and Ringling Museum of Art in the US; Victoria Gallery & Museum and Manchester Art Gallery in the UK; Espoo Museum of Modern Art in Finland; and Konstmuseet i Skövde in Sweden.
