About the Item

Art Deco Style Polar Bear Sculpture After François Pompon, MoMA Edition, circa 1984 A refined cast resin sculpture depicting the iconic Ours Blanc (Polar Bear), originally created by François Pompon between 1921–1924. This vintage reproduction, issued through the Museum of Modern Art, captures the sculptor’s celebrated minimalist approach—defined by smooth, simplified forms and a quiet sense of movement. Executed in white resin, the piece embodies the elegance and modernity of Pompon’s original vision, which marked a departure from highly detailed 19th-century animal sculpture toward a more stylized, sculptural purity. The underside bears a stamp to the rear foot, consistent with museum reproductions of the period. Compact in scale yet visually impactful, this work is ideal for display on a desk, shelf, or curated vignette, appealing to collectors of Art Deco, modernist sculpture, and design icons. Dimensions: 4.75" H × 9" W × 2.5" D Materials: Cast resin Origin: United States Publisher: Museum of Modern Art Period: Circa 1984 Condition: Very good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age A timeless and collectible homage to one of the most recognizable animal sculptures of the 20th century—celebrating form, balance, and modernist simplicity.
