Description

Parvine Curie TOTEM or CADAC CHARACTER Hammered brass, patinated 1988 - 2022 Signed "P. Curie Numbered to 6 ex. Height 200 cm Width: 80 cm Depth: 65 cm "I don't make abstract sculpture. I've always looked for the human in sculpture". Parvine Curie Parvine Curie's works possess a dual essence, that of an intimate monumentality that imposes itself through its forms, as much as it attracts and reassures us. The sculptural practice of this artist, who was François Stahly's companion, has never ceased to embody her great sensitivity as a woman and mother, and has gradually evolved over the course of a life rich in travel and discovery. Her works are marked by the visual, formal and spiritual power of the architecture of the many cultures that fascinate her. Her love of Spain, and more specifically Catalonia, where she lived for many years, has marked her personal history as much as her artistic path, and has been preponderant in the creation of some of her major works. This Personnage Cadac, a proud and elegant totem, symbolizes the predominant place still held in the artist's heart by the little village of Cadaquès, where she likes to recharge her batteries.
