« N°3 », bronze par Yan Verdier

Yan VERDIER (born 1972) Number 2/8 Cast at Blanchet Landowski, the famous foundry used by Buffet, César, Ustinov... A book accompanies the bronze, explaining its genesis and the various stages of production. 29 x 19 cm Yan Verdier developed a passion for cars at an early age. His teenage encounter with the Novo family, Bugatti specialists, was decisive. Summer and winter alike, he spends most of his free time assisting Henri and listening to his stories of racing in the 1930s. In 2002, he published "Une vie pour BUGATTI", the biography of Henri NOVO, witness to a bygone era. As a bronze artist, he expresses himself through a variety of techniques. He creates metal sculptures, jewelry and linocuts. N°3 has been a long journey for him. This bronze sculpture takes its inspiration from the heyday of motor racing in the Roaring Twenties. With its sleek lines, external exhaust and large flanged wheels, N°3 expresses the speed and danger that drivers braved. Virtuosos, pioneers.
