Pair of sculptures attributed to Guy Bareff in chamotte clay - 1970s - France

About the Item

Set of two sculptures, in chamotte clay, 1970s. . Dimensions : Height : 51 cm Depth : 17 cm Width : 9cm Approximative weight : 10 kgs Attributed to Guy Bareff and in the spirit of the creations of Lucien Petit. . La Borne, France. . Two slight marks/missing as you can see in one of the photos, which in no way distort the beauty of these very poetic pieces with a brutalist style. . Good vintage condition . The different colors obtained through the firing of these two sculptures are sublime. . Do not hesitate to ask me your questions, I am at your disposal. . Free transport for these two sublime pieces which will be perfectly packaged. . Guy Bareff has had a prolific and varied career. His recent works represent a new exploration of the visual vocabulary that characterized his work in the 1970s. The new pieces significantly recall the iconic style of that decade, yet are distinct, their creation having been informed by the contemporary context in which they were produced. Bareff's nuanced re-examination of such a fruitful period in his artistic evolution has resulted in a unique body of work, the latest incarnation of decades of artistic expression. Lucien Petit lives and works in Boisbelle, a village near La Borne. Trained in ceramic techniques, he very early associated the image of the passenger compartment with personal production, a recurring form throughout his work. His most recent works, evolving between anthropomorphism and abstraction, are in line with the sculptors of simple forms who have marked the modern history of La Borne. Placed in space and installed on the ground, these sculptures act as the protagonists of a silent room recalling the monoliths of a constantly changing landscape. Never fixed, it is always capable of being reconfigured or connected to other foreign objects or organic elements.
