[vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
Jean Robert, known as Ipoust\u00e9guy is one of the major sculptors of the second half of the 20th century. Born in 1920 in Dun-sur-Meuse (Lorraine), he died in his hometown in 2006.<\/p>\n
Solitary, he did not follow, nor initiate, any current, any school. The Robert of proper names presents it as a “baroque and hallucinatory realism”.<\/p>\n
An insatiable worker, he produced 600 sculptures, hundreds of watercolours, drawings and paintings. For many, his monumental works can be seen around the world in the greatest public collections.<\/p>\n
Fiercely independent, he paid the price for it all his life\u2026 and beyond: too absent from reference works, he still has not received the public homage he deserves. Admired, controversial; upsetting or disturbing. Ipoust\u00e9guy leaves no one indifferent: the public in general, whom he knows how to touch with his universal themes. Intellectuals or artists, by its expressive power.<\/p>\n
The famous American novelist John Updike said of Ipoust\u00e9guy in 1989, in his book Un simple regard, that Ipoust\u00e9guy was “the greatest living French sculptor”.<\/p>\n
1953<\/p>\n
Installed in his studio in Choisy-le-Roi since 1949, Ipoust\u00e9guy abandoned painting to devote himself entirely to sculpture. However, he will continue drawing, watercolor and writing. And this, despite the warning of the merchant Kahnweiler who had appreciated his pictorial work: \u201cRemember that you will become a sculptor at your own risk and peril\u201d.<\/p>\n
1962<\/p>\n
Decisive trip to Greece. The human body becomes the main subject of his sculpture. He has been at the Galerie Claude Bernard for 2 years and will remain there until 1982.<\/p>\n
1964<\/p>\n
He won the Bright Prize at the 32nd Venice Biennale.<\/p>\n
1971<\/p>\n
First public commission, L’Homme forcing unity.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/span>This monumental sculpture is installed in front of the Paul-Langevin Institute (CNE) in Grenoble.<\/p>\n 1978<\/p>\n Ipoust\u00e9guy retrospective at the National Foundation for Graphic and Plastic Arts in Paris. The event is widely hailed by the press.<\/p>\n 1979<\/p>\n Ipoust\u00e9guy installs The Man Built His City in front of the Berlin Congress Center. It is considered the largest sculpture ever made by a single man. The same year, a major retrospective was organized at the Kunsthalle in Berlin.<\/p>\n 1980<\/p>\n Ipoust\u00e9guy designs four monumental ensembles for Place Louis Pradel in Lyon. In the center, the figure of Louise Lab\u00e9. From that moment on, Ipoust\u00e9guy intimately mixes the shadow of the subject with the sculpted subject in his work.<\/p>\n 1984<\/p>\n Ipoust\u00e9guy carries out an order from the President of the Republic, Rimbaud. It will be The Man with Soles in front.<\/p>\n Installed in 1988, its aesthetic bias will be strongly criticized. The same year, he received the insignia of Chevalier de la L\u00e9gion d’honneur.<\/p>\n 1991<\/p>\n New retrospective at the Kunsthalle in Berlin.<\/p>\n 1999<\/p>\n Retrospective at Chelsea Harbour, London.<\/p>\n 2001<\/p>\n Publication of the catalog raisonn\u00e9 of the artist by \u00c9ditions la Diff\u00e9rence.

The artist deposits dozens of works there.<\/p>\n 2003<\/p>\n Ipoust\u00e9guy returns to his native land, settling a few hundred meters from the house where he was born and the center that bears his name. He received the Del Ducas prize at the Academy of Fine Arts (Institut de France).<\/p>\n 2006<\/p>\n Death of the artist. He is buried in the Cimeti\u00e8re Montparnasse, in Paris.<\/p>\n 2008<\/p>\n Major exhibition at Palazzo Perego in Legnano and in Milan.<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" <\/p>\n 1997<\/p>\n Bronze Sculpture<\/span><\/p>\n Signed and dated,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Num\u00e9roted 1\/8<\/span><\/p>\n Foundry’s Mark : Fonderie du Goust 2000<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Height : 57 cm<\/span><\/p>\n Width : 34 cm<\/span><\/p>\n Depth : 30 cm<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Bibliography : \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Ipoust\u00e9guy, l\u2019\u0153uvre sculpt\u00e9, catalogue raisonn\u00e9 1938-2000<\/em>, \u00e9tabli et pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 par Dominique Croiset-Veyre, \u00e9ditions de la diff\u00e9rence, p. 377, n\u00b0597<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nJEAN ROBERT IPOUST<\/span>\u00c9<\/span>GUY (<\/span>1920<\/span> – 2006)<\/span><\/h4>\n
