JEAN MICHEL FOLON (Belgium, 1934 - Monaco, 2005). "Quarante et unième pensée", 2002, Empire State building. Sculpture in patinated bronze. Exemplary 1/8. Signed on the top of the base. Enclosed certificate issued by the Folon Foundation. Measurements: 200 x 40 x 35 cm. In this sculpture Folon creates an anonymous character that seems lost in an undefined and absurd world. His head is covered by an American skyscraper, specifically by the Empire State Building, preventing the alienated protagonist from observing and understanding what is happening around him. Belgian painter, illustrator and sculptor, Jean-Michel Folon studied architecture at the Institut Saint-Luc in Brussels, and in 1969 held his first solo exhibition of watercolors at the Lefebre Gallery in New York. The following year he exhibited in Tokyo and Milan, and also participated in the Venice Biennale. Already fully recognized internationally, he will take part in outstanding competitions such as the São Paulo Biennial of 1973, where he will win the Grand Prize for Painting. Throughout his career, Folon worked with various illustration techniques, as well as engraving, silkscreen, mosaic and enameled glass. He also created numerous posters, many of them for humanitarian causes. Important museums have dedicated exhibitions to him, including the Decorative Arts Museum in Paris (1971), the Boymans van Beuningen Museum in Rotterdam (1976), the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London (1977), the Metropolitan Museum in New York (1990) and the Bunkamura Museum in Tokyo (1995), among others. He is currently represented in public and private collections around the world.
