Enamel on aluminum. Signed in red paint, dated '98' and numbered. Literature: Red Grooms: New Works (1999). Marlborough Gallery, New York, New York. April-May 1999. Cat. no. 2, Reproduced in color. Red Grooms’s Bicyclist (1999) is a painted aluminum sculpture that combines humor, movement, and vivid color in a lively three-dimensional scene. The exaggerated figure rides a penny-farthing bicycle, its oversized front wheel emphasizing both whimsy and historical reference. Rendered in bright enamel hues—pink, green, turquoise, and gold—the character appears animated and theatrical, with stylized features and playful detail. Grooms, known for his satirical take on everyday life and urban culture, brings a cartoon-like energy to the work while maintaining sculptural precision. Signed and dated, the piece exemplifies his distinctive blend of pop sensibility and narrative form.

What is late modernism?

Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
