César [Baldaccini], Self-Portrait, ca 1960 -by Daniel Frasnay 

-----

Per liquidare i popoli si comincia con il privarli della memoria.

Si distruggono i loro libri, la loro cultura, la loro storia. E qualcun altro scrive loro altri libri, li fornisce di un'altra cultura, inventa per loro un'altra storia.

Dopo di che il popolo comincia lentamente

a dimenticare quello

che è stato.

E il mondo intorno a lui

lo dimentica ancora più

in fretta.

- Milan Kundera

Germaine Richier (16 September 1902 – 21 July 1959) was a French sculptor. Born in Grans, Richier began her studies at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Montpellier, in the atelier of Louis-Jacques Guigues; in 1926 she went to work with Antoine Bourdelle, remaining in his studio until his death in 1929. There she became acquainted with Alberto Giacometti, although the two were never close. Richier for her part was more interested in a classical approach to sculpture, preferring to work from a live model and then reworking the final product. She also met César Baldaccini at this stage in her career. She married Otto Bänninger on 12 December 1929. In 1936, she won the Prix Blumenthal. During the war, she met Marino Marini, in exile in Switzerland. Via Wikipedia

Plaque en hommage à : César

Type : Lieu de résidence, Lieu de décès

Adresse : 9 rue de Grenelle, 75007 Paris, France

Date de pose : 2009

Texte : Le sculpteur César, 1921 - 1998, a vécu et est mort dans cette maison

Quelques précisions : César Baldaccini (1921-1998), dit César, est un sculpteur français. Il étudie aux Beaux-Arts de Marseille avant de rejoindre en 1943, ceux de Paris. Ne pouvant travailler la pierre, trop coûteuse, il se tourne vers d'autres matériaux plus économiques, dont le plâtre, le bronze et le fer. Il accède à une notoriété internationale dans les années 1950, période à laquelle ses œuvres commencent à être achetées par des musées et être exposées dans diverses biennales. Il rejoint en 1961 le mouvement des Nouveaux réalistes, et est également connu pour avoir créé le trophée de la cérémonie des César du cinéma. Certaines de ses œuvres, comme Le Pouce (1981) ou Le Centaure (1985), sont encore visibles dans Paris.

France Sculpture and Figures

France Sculpture and Figures

France is known worldwide for its rich cultural heritage, including its impressive collection of sculptures and figures. Throughout history, French sculptors have produced some of the most iconic works of art, influencing and inspiring artists worldwide.

 Introduction

 Sculpture and figures have been integral to French culture since ancient times. French sculptors have created a wide range of styles and designs from the prehistoric era to the present day, making France one of the world's leading sculpture centers.

 French Renaissance Sculpture

The French Renaissance period, from the 15th to the early 17th century, was characterized by the revival of classical learning and the arts. French sculptors during this time created highly realistic, expressive, and anatomically correct sculptures. One of the most famous French Renaissance sculptures is the statue of Diane Chasseresse by Jean Goujon, located in the Louvre Museum. Art glass chandelier, Art glass lighting chandeliers, Chandelier opalescent glass, Opalescent glass, Art deco pendant , Art deco pendant chandelier, Glass chandelier art, Art deco ceiling light, Freres art deco, Art nouveau pendant

 Baroque Sculpture in France

French sculptors adopted a more ornate and exquisite style during the Baroque period in the 17th and 18th centuries. The sculptures of this period often featured exaggerated movements, intricate details, and dramatic expressions. Notable Baroque sculptures in France include the marble sculptures of the Four Seasons by François Girardon, located in the gardens of the Palace of Versailles. Muller Freres, Petitot, Schneider, Hettier ey Vincent, Genet et Michon, Original antique, art deco, opalescent glass, pressed glass, Maynadier, Mouynet, Sabino, abstract motifs, Geometric design, linear design, Leleu, Poillerat. https://www.gdlgartdeco.com

 Neoclassical Sculpture in France

In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, French sculptors were influenced by the neoclassical movement, which drew inspiration from ancient Greece and Rome. Clean lines, classical poses, and an emphasis on heroic figures characterized the neoclassical sculptures. The most famous neoclassical sculpture in France is the statue of Napoleon Bonaparte by Antonio Canova, located in the Musée Napoléon in Paris.

 Modern and Contemporary Sculpture in France

The 20th century saw a significant shift in French sculpture, as artists began to explore new styles and techniques. Modern and contemporary French sculptures include a wide range of abstract and figurative styles, often made from unconventional materials such as metal, glass, and plastic. Some of the most famous French modern and contemporary sculptures include Le Pouce (The Thumb) by César Baldaccini and L'Ecoute (The Listening) by Henri de Miller.

 Famous French Sculptures and Figures

France is home to some of the world's most famous sculptures and figures, many of which are icons of French culture. The Thinker by Auguste Rodin is one such sculpture in the Musée Rodin in Paris. Another famous sculpture is the Venus de Milo, discovered on the island of Milos in Greece, and it is now on display at the Louvre Museum. La Liberté éclairant le monde, commonly known as The Statue of Liberty, was created by the French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and gifted to the United States in 1886 as a symbol of freedom and democracy. The Arc de Triomphe, located at the western end of the Champs-Élysées in Paris, is another iconic French sculpture celebrating the French army's victories and the French Revolution's fallen soldiers.
