Three-headed Cow in Bronze, Small Version | Joachim Schönfeldt | 2015

Parts & Labour has been working with Joachim Schönfeldt to produce a series of small bronze cows.

The bronze stems from a body of work which Joachim has been working on for the better part of his artistic career.

The Museum of Modern Art recently bought a set of editioned fine art prints from Joachim for their permanent collection.
‘Schönfeldt employs irony in mock-pedantic works about the commodification of traditional African objects and turns the question of authenticity and commodity onto his own work. The artist’s depiction of three-headed female animals is inspired by Hindu, Assyrian, and Greco-Roman iconography and relates to his interest in pan-African religion.’ MoMA.

The limited edition prints are available from The Artists’ Press.
