Bernard Rives Art

French, b. 1948

Bernard Rives is a French sculptor, born in 1947 in Carcassonne. He studied at the Staatliche Höhere Fachschule für Photographie in Köln. Afterward, he moved to Barcelona where he began a career as an advertising photographer. Passionate about sculpture, he discovered it as a self-taught artist. In 1983, he won the first prize at the Paul Ricard foundation, when he had just begun his career in sculpture. Stimulated by this experience and the good results he got, he kept on creating and shaping sculptures, full of sensuality and elegance moving away from contemporary abstraction and immersing with passion into a new figurative way. Mutine and Tango are some of his most significant creations and La pareja and La Mujer are his protagonists. He also represents the kingdom of animals with his national Bull Olé Olé, the elegance of the horse, Yearling or the balance with the cat, Misty.
