César Baldaccini "Expansion" Sculpture in Bronze Signed France, 1960

About the Item

César Baldaccini "Expansion" sculpture in bronze signed France 1960 Signed César och numbered 86/99. Foundry Mark Blanchet Fondeur, France. Provenance: Gallery GKM, Malmo, Sweden César Baldaccini, known as César, is a French sculptor born on January 1, 1921 in Marseille and died on December 6, 1998 in Paris 7e. He is part of the New Realists movement, born in 1960. He is also the creator of the bronze trophy of the ceremony of the César of French cinema Reversing the spirit of the compressions, César presented La grande expansion orange, made of polyurethane, at the Salon de Mai in 1967. From 1969 onwards, he developed a method to ensure better conservation of his Expansions. These exploit the possibilities of this material in smooth and hard castings; the intervention of the creator is done either on the rigidity, the thickness, the coloring, or on the castings (superposition or juxtaposition) or on the frozen mass (work of completion in the form of nappage, of sanding, of lacquering). He began working with molten crystal or cast iron and coated objects in transparent plastic in 1971. In the 1970s, he gained international recognition. Now universally known, he became one of the leading French artists and had numerous exhibitions. His work Conserve expansion - Martial Raysse, 1970-1972, is kept at the Museo Cantonale d'Arte in Lugano.20.
