    Unbecoming forms : works 1967-1974 : [Kunsthalle Basel, March 2 - June 6, 2021]
    Bandau, Joachim
    All adamantine surfaces and abstracted curves, Bandau’s early sculptures were typically achieved by way of chopping up department store mannequins and slathering these fragments with ... fiberglass-reinforced polyester that he then sanded and coated, sanded and coated, again and again. The segments of the dismembered figures were often used in the most unexpected ways, with Bandau’s process usually concealing the bodily antecedents at a particular artwork’s core. Their final, painstakingly created shells, either absolutely smooth or mottled with skin-like pores, were then lacquered in highpolish paint, mostly black or white, but sometimes in such colors as fire-engine red or bright orange, metallic silver or bruised grey.
