About the Item
Cyrille André's gentle giant figure in black Polyester resin measures 99.5 x 63 x 61 inches and his dog in cast aluminum measures 43.25 x 46.5 x 21 inches. This is a unique sculpture.
"Témoin is a giant seen crouching next to a young dog at his scale," says French sculptor Cyrille André. "This monumental sculpture consists of a benevolent giant who lowers himself to our height to observe us humans with compassion and to begin a dialogue. His dog companion is the allegorical figure of the sage. The monumental scale of this work take us back to myths and children’s tales and invite us to relive the state of childhood." The sculpture can be seen here at different venues where it was exhibited.
Cyrille André was born in Lyons, France, and received his DNSEP (Diplome National Supérieur d'Expression Plastique) from the Ecole d’Art de Grenoble in 1997. André began studying painting and drawing, but soon discovered his desire to sculpt - to be physically involved with the materials. After graduating, he taught art for ten years while developing his sculpture practice. In 2007, brisk sales both nationally and internationally allowed him to devote himself to art-making full time. André’s work is now in many European and American collections, both private and public.
Although his early work was executed in roughly carved wood, André is best known for his large-scale figures in slick black or white polyester resin with blank facial expression that tower as high as 15 feet. Often inspired by current events, André’s main preoccupation is with humanity - our origins and social interactions, but also our interconnections with animals.
