Alain Choisnet: Sculpture 'Lisa', version in bronze

Product information "Alain Choisnet: Sculpture 'Lisa', version in bronze"

Lisa - a secular goddess of beauty. To call the works of French sculptor Alain Choisnet, born in Brittany in 1962, classical would be somewhat justified: He clearly likes to orientate his works on the classical aesthetics of antiquity, executing body shape and drapery in subtle detail and in this way creating, for example in his sculpture 'Lisa', an homage to femininity that - quite antique - may make her appear almost as a goddess of beauty. At the same time, it is no less obvious that 'Lisa' is an entirely modern woman. And so Choisnet is not only aiming for perfectly crafted realism and subtle sensuality, his 'Lisa' also radiates calm and composure, which characterises his protagonist as a strong, self-confident personality.
