Jim Ritchie "Femme Debout" 5/8 Gilt Bronze Sculpture, 1990s

About the Item

Gilt bronze sculpture of a standing woman in the figurative cubist style by Jim Ritchie circa 1990 in Vence, France, edition 5 of 8. In great structural condition, has no damage, however the gilt shows signs of aging in some places. "Jim Ritchie (James Edward Ritchie) est un sculpteur né à Montréal, mais qui a vécu une grande part de sa vie en Provence, plus précisément à Vence, où il a installé son studio en 1967. La proximité de Pietrasanta, village italien reconnu pour ses chantiers de marbre et les travaux de Michelangelo, a été un facteur déterminant dans sa production. Réalisées dans un style moderniste, entre le cubisme et l’abstraction figurative, ses œuvres en marbre ou en bronze ont pour sujet principal l’être humain. Plusieurs de ses sculptures et dessins ont été exposés à Montréal, Londres, New York, Los Angeles et Boston. Sa sculpture, La Vençoise, en hommage à Vence, est érigée dans le centre du village où il a vécu plus de cinquante ans. Ses œuvres publiques font, entre autres, partie des collections du Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, du Musée d’art de Saint-Laurent, de la Art Gallery d’Hamilton et de la Art Gallery de la Nouvelle-Écosse. Jim Ritchie est l’auteur d’une biographie, A Sculptural Life, parue en 2012."
