Abstract Dancers Sculpture by Boris Kramer

Two heads, one embrace, and a single pair of shoulders shared between them.

This abstract dancers sculpture is by Boris Kramer and dates to the 20th century, in forged iron. Sculpture of this kind relies on silhouette, letting a few cut curves stand in for a whole body in motion. Two slender figures are cut from dark iron and joined at the shoulders by one curved bar. One leg kicks back while another sweeps out to a pointed foot, and the pair balance on almost nothing. Their heads are simple ovals, tilted toward each other. It is 9.5 inches wide, 10 deep and 23.5 high.

Iron has seldom looked this light on its feet.
