Exhibition “The transfiguration of metal • Hiquily & Marino Di Teana

Galerie LOFT honors two artists who have profoundly upset the codes of sculpture by revolutionizing the practice of metal sculpture and are today among the greatest figures of contemporary sculpture in France.

They have each with their own singularity  (the playful movement and eroticism for Hiquily and the architectural construction for Marino di Teana) tamed the raw metal (often recycling) which they knew how to tame with their extraordinary technical qualities. They are part of this first generation of artists whose work on iron, brass or steel (hammered, forged, welded, polished or patinated, etc.), enabled metal sculpture to obtain its true letters of recognition. nobility and to pave the way for new generations of sculptors such as Bernard Venet or Richard Serra.
