Description of Reflections of Truth (polished bronze)

Reflections of Truth (polished bronze), 2012 is a Sculpture from the "Icons of Optimism" series by the contemporary artist Joseph Klibansky. It's made from the materials bronze, polished bronze. And it's created as a limited edition.

Reflectionf of Truth a dazzling example of technical virtuosity and conceptual nuance. Mirror-polished to a gleaming gold finish, the work presents a captivating reinterpretation of the fable of Pinocchio. The figure of the wooden marionette is depicted in a posture of reverence and introspection, cradling a diamond ring in its grasp. Through this composition, the artist invokes the age-old question of the morality of success and the decisions we make along the way. The growth of Pinocchio's nose serves as an allegory for the consequences of deception and expediency, while the entrapment of the arms within the diamond ring symbolizes the danger of fixating solely on success. This piece invites the viewer to contemplate the eternal struggle between temptation and rectitude, a theme made all the more poignant by its echoes in our own lives. This sculpture is a testament to the artist's ability to elevate an iconic narrative to new heights of philosophical insight and formal elegance.
