The FOUR SEASONS is a set of four five-meter-high fiberglass sculptures by internationally-renowned contemporary American artist and filmmaker Philip Haas.

 

In a spectacular transformation that is typical of his work, Haas has created a group of large-scale sculptures, inspired by Giuseppe Arcimboldo’s renaissance paintings of the four seasons, comprising SPRING, SUMMER, AUTUMN and WINTER. The colossal size of the sculpture accentuates the visual puzzle of natural forms –- flowers, ivy, moss, fungi, vegetables, fruit, trees, bark, branches, twigs -– as they are recycled to form four human portraits, each representing an individual season. The result is at once grotesque, earthy, and exuberant.
