<div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>In Harry Bertoia's oeuvre, "<em>Willow</em>" stands apart as an extraordinary synthesis of natural inspiration and innovative metalwork.

في أعمال هاري برتويا، تبرز لوحة "الصفصاف" بوصفها توليفة استثنائية من الإلهام الطبيعي والأعمال المعدنية المبتكرة. حيث تجسد خيوطها المتتالية من الفولاذ المقاوم للصدأ الأناقة المتدرجة لأغصان شجرة الصفصاف المتدلية مع إضفاء طابع ديناميكي تفاعلي من خلال سطحها المتلألئ واستجابتها الدقيقة للحركة. تعكس الخيوط - سواء أُطلق عليها اسم "بهرجة" أو "خيوط" أو "محاليق" - رقة الأشكال الطبيعية، وتمزج بين البراعة الفنية والإتقان التقني.





برتويا، وهو نحات ذو رؤية ثاقبة وقدرة لا مثيل لها على تحويل المواد الصناعية إلى جمال عضوي، من المرجح أنه استخدم عمليات دقيقة لابتكار "الصفصاف"، حيث قام بتقطيع صفائح رقيقة من الفولاذ المقاوم للصدأ إلى شرائح دقيقة وربطها بخبرة في قلب مركزي، ووضع كل خيط لينساب مثل الماء أو يتمايل مثل أوراق الشجر مع النسيم. وتدعو الجودة الملموسة للخيوط التي تستجيب لتيارات الهواء أو اللمس المشاهد إلى التفاعل التأملي مع العمل، تماماً كما قد يشعر المرء تحت مظلة شجرة صفصاف.





تجسد هذه القطعة افتتان برتويا بالطبيعة الذي استمر طوال حياته، والذي ينبع من سنواته الأولى في قرية سان لورينزو الريفية بإيطاليا. وقد أثرت حساسيته تجاه العالم العضوي باستمرار على ممارسته الفنية، بدءاً من منحوتاته الصوتية الشهيرة "سونامبينت" وصولاً إلى إبداعات مثل "الصفصاف" التي تعيد تصور العلاقة بين الشكل والبيئة. وكما قال ذات مرة، "لم أعد متمسكاً بمصطلحات مثل الموسيقى والنحت. فقد فقدت تلك الفروق القديمة كل معانيها."





مرة أخرى، يأسرنا بيرتويا مرة أخرى من خلال تجاوز الحدود التقليدية للنحت، ليقدم عملاً يمثل تجربة حسية بقدر ما هو تجربة بصرية. إنه مزيج متناغم من الإلهام الطبيعي والفن المبتكر، وهو تذكير بالجمال المقدس الموجود في تقاطع الفن مع العالم الطبيعي.
