Ignacio Gallo was born in Valladolid, Spain in the 19th century. He worked from 1910–1935 specialising in statuettes of bathers, dancers, nudes and pagan goddesses. While working in Paris in the mid to late 1920s he created this piece of two women dancing. Unlike a nude sculpture, this gives us a glimpse of the era with the fashionable bobbed hairdo, and the shortened skirt. The 1920s “Jazz Age” saw a great deal of same sex dancing partners some of it romantic but more often just the popularity of both social dance and “artistic” (think Isadora Duncan) as well as “cabaret” performance. This lively sculpture is a nod to all three forms. Ignacio Gallo’s creations in bronze were made at the Marcel Guillemard Foundry which has an interesting history of its own. Guillemard worked first with Andre Fau...
