Description:
An early composition in welded steel, circa 1963. Made in
San Diego, this sculpture was exhibited in Nyiri's first one person
show at Orr's Gallery in early 1964 and is illustrated in the accompanying
catalogue. The work was kept in the family of another local artist
until recently and its original subtly colored surface was preserved
indoors. Early pieces like "Kraken" were brisk sellers at
Nyiri's exhibitions and most went into private collections long ago.
