Fat 12 Point Carbon Fiber Star

The "Fat 12 Point Carbon Fiber Star" is a sculpture created by the American artist Frank Stella in 2016. Stella, who began as a leading figure in the Minimalist art movement, later became known for his irregularly shaped works and large-scale multimedia reliefs.

This particular sculpture is an example of Stella's exploration of star forms, which he began experimenting with in the 1990s. These star sculptures vary in size and finish, with some being freestanding, like the "Fat 12 Point Carbon Fiber Star," and others attached to different sculptural elements. Stella's work often incorporates industrial materials and geometric shapes, reflecting his engagement with both minimalist principles and later, more complex, multimedia constructions.12
