A Ceramic & Bronze MIRROR SCULPTURE Unique Piece by JEAN PERILLAUD, France 1970
About the Item
An exceptional rectangular and asymmetrical wall-sculpture mirror, Brutalist, large vertical rectangular frame in bronze or patinated brass, with 2 welded asymmetrical inserts arranged in secondary frames:
- at the top left, a half-hemisphere in "organic" ceramic perforated like foam with multicolored gradations.
- at the bottom in the center, a rectangle generously re-framed by visible welds with the hollow mirror.
The set is signed on the top side with a Perillaud stamp, unique piece by the artist Jean Perillaud, France 1970-1980.
This wall work, which is similar to a bas-relief, is characterized by the rigor of its composition, geometric and quasi-architectural, counterbalanced by the quality as raw as organic - and yet very precise - of its finishes (lumpy welds and gilded around the rectangular perimeter of the gilt bronze/brass frame, metal welds becoming asymmetrical graphic elements around the inserts, and finally, this circular and porous ceramic in multiple colors, of great finesse, which evokes a cell, an organ stylized or a stylized star...). These elements, iron and ceramic, in apparent fusion, bring a cosmic, even esoteric dimension to this mirror.
And it is the reflection of the viewer of the work that completes the beauty of the whole. Wonderful!
This is an exceptional piece shaped by hand, unique like all the works of Jean Perillaud, signed with a superb stamp on the top of the frame. It is as solid as it is fragile (the ceramic included is in perfect condition but very fragile and requires particularly careful packaging for the transport of this work).
This piece should be considered as a work of art in its own right, in line with the great mirror designers of the second half of the 20th century (Line Vautrin, Roland Zobel... etc!).

- A Metal CACTUS Contemporary SCULPTURE BRUTALIST Unique PIECE by ESOJ France 2020By (Circle of) Jan WeesopLocated in PARIS, FRA strong and spectacular metal cactus, contemporary brutalist sculpture, unique piece by artist ESOJ, France 2020. We represent ESOJ and organized his exhibition "Metal Spirit", November 2022, in our gallery in Paris, and this unique piece was presented during this event. Esoj's work is rooted in a direct link to daily life, to the visual value of consumer objects. Whether they are elements of nature or products of pop culture, he fixes them in the metal to give them a definitive appearance, a form of immortality: a box of opened chocolates will be there forever, nothing will not erase Mickey's sluggish smile, nor his middle finger; a succulent plant frozen in iron will no longer need water... A parallel world under construction, a world of avatars springing from a metallic quintessence which confronts man with himself, with matter, with progress, to the flow of time. Beyond their symbolic force, Esoj's sculptures express as much the visceral gesture of the artist in a world losing meaning, as they catalog his universe in a subjective archive. For his first collaboration with us, Esoj looks away from his Barbie dolls, Playmobils and bags of M&Ms, to sketch a sort of return to Nature and vibrate an ancestral wisdom evident in his new series of cacti, succulents, vases and masks murals with shamanic connotations. A wisdom that he draws from his Portuguese origins, this saudade: “tension between opposites, on the one hand the feeling of a lack, on the other hand the hope and the desire to find what we lack”, embodied here by a particularly inhabited desert; where cacti are next to agaves, aloes, prickly pears, plants which are certainly ornamental but also hallucinogenic and healing, sometimes fatal; where the series of containers suggests an almost medicinal link between these inert objects, even more obvious in the wall piece inspired by Korean shaman...Category
