Leopold ANDREU

Léopold is a shadow sculptor. Its personages give to him breath, the desire to always go more far in the expression of the pain and derision. Every work is double-edged, or doubles reading, it cannot satisfy himself of a single feeling, it wishes to express the multiplicity of the sensations…La matter is noble, skates it worked, the result leaves any marble. One rediscovers in his work at once the force of the big classical masters, that its long years of formation to the fine arts induce implicitly, and to smile it of the modernity. The creations of Léopold Andreu have many times been applauded, recognized, surpassed, and despite a charismatic physics, it does not like the light. It knows that it cannot hide too a long time the expression of its pains and of his maturity, thus it takes up position in this survival instinct that immerses its sculptures in l 'irony.

French sculptor, been born in 1960, architect, restaurant owner, decorator, in love with the beautiful rocks, objects, it plays with our evil to present the life game.

Worthy heir of Rodin, Pagès, Bourgeois Soup, Bacon or Giacometti, itself it had to remain only a word, this would be … the cry.
