Its striking form, impeccable craftsmanship and exceptional provenance make it a highly coveted piece that is sure to impress and enchant anyone who sees it. Cesar Badaccini (1921-1998) His parents, Omer and Lelia Baldaccini, Italians of Tuscan origin, ran a bar in Marseille where César was born, with his twin sister Amandine, in 1921 in the popular district of Belle-de-Mai, at 71 rue Loubon, in the 3rd arrondissement1. "I am basically an absolute self-taught," he will say2. At the time, he designed and tinkered with carts for his little brother with cans. Nevertheless, after first working for his father (he also helped a butcher neighbor for a meager salary after leaving school at the age of twelve), he followed the courses of the École supérieure des beaux-arts de Marseille from 1935 to 1939; in 1937, he obtained three prizes, in engraving, drawing and architecture3. Not mobilized during the war (he also escaped the STO), he lived on scams before settling in Paris to be admitted, in 1943, to the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts with Michel Guino, Albert Féraud, Daniel David, Eugène Dodeigne and Philippe Hiquily, like him in the workshop of Marcel Gimond. In 1945, he returned to Marseille to marry Maria Astruc, with whom he set up a business (they divorced in 1959). He returned to Paris in 1946 where he occupied a studio in an old brothel at 21 rue de l'Échaudé, whose rooms, following the Marthe Richard law, had been assigned to students4. There he met Émilenne Deschamps, who would later become one of his muses. Faced with the impossibility for him to work the stone, because of its cost, he turned to other materials3. From 1947, he worked on plaster and iron. In 1949, he was introduced to arc welding in an industrial carpentry in Trans-en-Provence and used lead in pushed sheets and welded iron wires. In 1951, he visited Pompeii and remained marked by the casts of the bodies of the inhabitants caught in the lava3. In 1952, he used inexpensive recovered materials and made his first sculptures in welded scrap metal: his means were then still modest. Thus, for lack of money and to afford marble, César will recover in the scrap dumps the materials of his first sculptures: tubes, bolts, screws that become insects or end up in the powerful curves of the Venus de Villetaneuse (1962). In 1954, he exhibited at the Lucien Durand gallery in Paris and obtained the "collabo" prize for a sculpture entitled Le Poisson5, made in Villetaneuse, a city where he worked for a dozen years thanks to the help of a local industrialist, Léon Jacques6. He gained fame when his work was bought for 100,000 francs in 1955 by the State for the National Museum of Modern Art7. The same year, he exhibited at the Salon de Mai. The following year, the MNAM bought Chauve-souris from 1954 and the museum of modern art in the city of Paris Le scorpion from 1955. From 1954 (Torse, MOMA), he also made sculptures in welded metal, then in partially polished bronze, of busty women (Ginette, 1958, Victoire de Villetaneuse, 1965). In 1956, he participated in the Venice Biennale then in the São Paulo Biennale and in the Documenta II in 1959. In 1958, he signed a contract with the Parisian gallery Claude Bernard3. In 1961, he approached Marino di Teana and joined the group of Nouveaux réalistes, a movement founded by art critic Pierre Restany8, including Arman, Jean Tinguely, Niki de Saint Phalle and Gérard Deschamps. When he could afford a workshop in 1957, rue Campagne-Première in Paris, he married Rosine Groult-Baldaccini (met at the Beaux-Arts in 1948) with whom he had a daughter, Anna, a year later. He also begins to frequent the world of the In 1968, he created at the National Manufacture of Sèvres a porcelain Ashtray published in fifty copies. Made of porcelain with a semi-matt pearly cover, it represents a plaster mold used for the production of the pieces, and was produced from an original aluminum model. In 1971, during a premiere at the Lido, he found more media than him: Salvador Dalí, the master of extravagance. He debates the same year in Italiques with François Truffaut, Lucien Bodard and Asher Ben...

a striking RED FAT LAVA FLOOR VASE no. 284-47 by SCHEURICH Scheurich originated from a joint venture initiated in 1928 by Alois Scheurich and his cousin Fridolin Greulich in the small town of Schneeberg, situated near the Czech border in Saxony. The venture involved the wholesaling of glass, porcelain, and ceramics. In 1938, the business was relocated to the market community of Kleinheubach in the northeast corner of Bavaria. Ten years later, the partners initiated the production of household ceramics, which were sold under the name Scheurich & Greulich. In 1954, the partnership was dissolved, and Alois proceeded to establish Scheurich GmbH & Co. KG proceeded to continue production independently. In 1955, the celebrated designer Heinz Siery was recruited by Scheurich as the company's lead form designer. In addition to designing an extensive range of shapes, he played a pivotal role in developing a successful overarching production strategy. This strategy involved producing a wide array of simple forms that could be produced cheaply and decorated in a variety of glazes. This resulted in the creation of a diverse and economically adaptable range of pieces. This approach proved to be entirely successful, resulting in Scheurich's ascendency in the market by the late 1960s. The company's strategy of maintaining low prices in conjunction with an extensive range of appealing designs resulted in significant sales, with millions of units sold annually. The designs were adapted twice a year to align with changing consumer preferences. Scheurich's product range included vases and flowerpots, in addition to ashtrays, piggy banks, candle stands, beer mugs, buffet clocks, wall reliefs and Christmas tree holders...
