Iron, polyurethane, cellophane, aluminium (green). Polistes (1990) by Panamarenko is a compact sculptural object made from iron, polyurethane, cellophane, and aluminum, measuring 13 x 50.3 x 26 cm. This green, streamlined form resembles a futuristic, miniature concept vehicle with aerodynamic curves and minimalist detailing. The name “Polistes,” referring to a genus of wasps, suggests associations with flight, agility, and bio-engineering. The work reflects Panamarenko’s ongoing fascination with the intersection of technology and nature, imagination and engineering. With its organic yet mechanical aesthetic, this piece blurs the boundary between model and machine, aligning with the artist’s broader vision of speculative invention and movement.

Sometimes referred to as Conceptualism, this is an art form where the idea(s) or concept(s) behind the work take precedence over material concerns and traditional aesthetics. Many conceptual artworks can be created by anyone simply by following written instructions. The concept or idea is the most essential aspect of the artwork.
