Eric Valat
Large Rearing Horse by Eric Valat - Animal sculpture, outdoor, white, polyester

2019

About the Item

Large Rearing Horse is a polyester sculpture by contemporary artist Eric Valat, dimensions are 200 × 145 × 60 cm (78.7 × 57 × 23.6 in). The sculpture is available in white, black, red, blue, yellow colours. The sculpture is signed and numbered, it is part of a limited edition of 8 editions + 4 artist’s proofs, and comes with a certificate of authenticity. The horse is represented in this work in a fairly traditional pose, as is common in art history. Eric Valat, on the other hand, revitalises the image of the horse by highlighting its most defining characteristics in a stylized depiction. The artist accentuates the dynamism of the sculpture — which is already emphasized by the horse's restless stance — by excising some material from the horse's belly and chest. After graduating from the Toulouse School of Fine Arts, Éric Valat began working with recycled metal objects, which fascinate him because of their history. The artist combines them with synthetic and plastic materials, allowing greater creative freedom, and develops a bestiary of unique sculptures. Today, Eric Valat’s artistic production consists of animals created in bronze or polyester. With their poetry and an impetus that seems to animate them, they invite us to tell ourselves stories, and to imagine our own fables. Since the late 90s, the artist has created more than 30 monumental sculptures, exhibited in private and public places.
