Claude Millette
Corpheum XIX - large, geometric, abstract, stainless steel outdoor sculpture

2023

About the Item

The graceful arc of a dancer in motion is emulated in the fluid form of this elegant sculpture by Claude Millette. Three attached curved columns of polished stainless steel appear to almost float in mid-air. The Quebec artist whose career spans four decades is known for his imaginative abstract work that plays with the viewer’s perception of balance and imbalance. One of a series. “The opposition between solid and flexible takes on its full meaning from the fact that the beams I make for my work, unlike the framework of buildings, are usually curved and appear to grow. It’s like what happens in dance, energy comes from tensions or polarities.” Claude Millette Born in Saint-Hyacinthe, Quebec, Millette studied at the École de sculpture de Saint-Jean-Port-Joli and apprenticed with sculptors Robert Poulin and Jordi Bonet. Millette's works have been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions. He has received commissions for public artworks in Quebec, Russia, France, Costa Rica and Mexico. His works have been acquired by several museums (Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal; Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec, Quebec City), and stands in numerous municipal and private collections.
