Plus tard, certains sculpteurs, tout aussi talentueux, seront remplacés ou invités au sein du collectif : c'est entre autre le cas de Herbert Haseltine, Armand Petersen ou Auguste Trémont par exemple / Charles Artus, member of the "groupe des XII", is part of the hard core of this group of "avant-gardistes" animal sculptors born in 1931 under the impulse of François Pompon.
