EMPIRE
by Studio Job
Inspired by the Studio Job’s “Robber Baron” bronze sculpture from 2008, this
much more simplified version is an 85-centimeters-high resized model of the
Studio Job icon. “Empire” expresses Job’s fascination for landmarks and their
meaning. “It speaks of the meaning of iconic buildings in our culture and the
power that is housed within these huge buildings or landmarks” explains Job
Smeets, “in this piece are melding strong yet different referential architectures”.
From the Parthenon in Athens on the base to the Empire State Building in New
York and the Capitol Building in Washington on the top.
