  • Sculpture "Dream" by Caesar by Louis Durot, 1998
    By Louis Durot
    Located in Saint-Ouen, FR
    Abstract freeform sculpture in reddish polyurethane entitled "Dream of Caesar" in tribute to César Baldaccini. Louis Durot collaborated with César in 1966 as a chemist to improve his "expansions". It was not long after Caesar's death that he finally found this material for his creations. This work and signed on the back of the artist and provided with are “Certificate of Authenticity”. 1998 French work signed Louis Durot. Perfect condition. 1964: Louis Durot creates with several friends an artistic movement "Freelane studio", which tries to bring together artists of various disciplines to achieve a common artistic synthesis. The movement featured jazz journalist Giles Brinnon and a young painter, Jean Ihallero, a friend of painter Maxime Defert. Brinnon and Ihallero present Louis Durot to François Arnal as a research engineer. Louis Durot will try to work with François Arnal on his sculptures of the time, and will maintain relations with him until the marriage of the latter (with a girl of sixteen in 1976). He spent two summers with Arnal, Micheline Presle and Daniel Gelin. During the second stay, in 1968, François Arnal and Micheline Presle created the Châteauvallon theater festival, during which Louis Durot became friends with the director Ulysse Renaud. At the end of 1966, François Arnal introduced Louis Durot to César as a chemical engineer. For a year he will be the assistant of Caesar, to improve his knowledge of polyurethane foam and try to perpetuate his foam creations (fragile and ephemeral) and make them final. At this time, Caesar introduced him to Pierre Restany, Dr. Knapp and his friends Arman and Malaval. For a year, Caesar and his relations will make the artistic education of Louis Durot and convince him that what he must do, he can do it better and with more technology. Caesar made flat and ephemeral reliefs in a free and uncontrolled material. In 1968, Louis Durot conceived the project of three-dimensional sculptures with controlled material according to a drawing and a simple and precise project. It was during this period that he made drawings of his first pieces ('mushrooms' and 'carnivorous plants'). In 1968, he opened his first mechanical workshop. 1971: first exhibition at Batimat (Paris) - Exhibition at the leather fair. Between 1971 and 1974, Louis created about sixty sculptures around an extraterrestrial world populated by mushrooms and carnivorous plants. In 1974, Louis Durot participated with the architects Sloan and Lecouter in the project of inflatable structure for the French Pavilion in Osaka. The project is priced at one million francs but is ultimately not realized. It is with this price that Louis Durot is recognized for his expertise on polyurethane. At the beginning of the 80's, he realized pure works and designs such as "Le Pied", "La Bouche", "Saint siege" and some erotic works, in a style definitely "pop". At the same time, he continues to work as a research director in listed companies. It continues to explode in 1991 (La Villette new technologies fair), in 1993 at Art Chicago, 1994 at the Sofa lounge in Miami and 1995 in New York. From 1998, he exhibited permanently in China. He becomes a star accumulating dozens of articles in the Chinese press...
