About the Item
Gorille – Épreuve d’artiste n°1/4
Bernard
Arnaud Bessoud, 2005
Fondeur : Chapon
Sculpture emblématique du duo Bernard
Arnaud Bessoud, ce gorille en bronze incarne à la fois la puissance et la profondeur émotionnelle qui caractérisent leur œuvre. Réalisée en 2005, cette pièce rare est la première des quatre épreuves d’artistes éditées par le fondeur Chapon, gage d’une qualité d’exécution irréprochable.
Le modelé expressif, la tension contenue des épaules et la densité du regard traduisent la fascination des artistes pour la force brute et la dignité silencieuse de l’animal. Le travail du bronze, d’une grande subtilité, restitue chaque détail du pelage et du volume avec un réalisme vibrant.
Cette pièce a une provenance exceptionnelle, puisqu’elle a appartenu à l’artiste lui-même avant d’être acquise directement dans sa demeure — un témoignage rare de l’attachement des sculpteurs à cette création fondatrice.
Œuvre à la fois animale et humaine, ce gorille s’impose comme une présence sculpturale intense, entre majesté et introspection. Il trouve naturellement sa place dans un intérieur contemporain, une collection privée ou un espace d’exposition dédié à la sculpture figurative contemporaine française.
Méconnu et craint, ce primate représente le mélange parfait de la force brute et de la douceur.
Le dos argenté des mâles dominants constitue une impressionnante toison et une incroyable matière à sculpter.
La sculpture sera accompagnée de son Certificat d'authenticité.
Vous pouvez également retrouvé le gorille dans un article sur les artistes dans un GeoARt.
