Saint Clair Cemin (born in Cruz Alta, Brazil, 1951) is a postmodern sculptor. He lives and works between Woodbury, CT, and Hydra, Greece. From the naturalistic to the abstract surreal, Saint Clair Cemin's broad sculptural vocabulary presents a bold panoply of work that is both striking and immediate. Cannibalizing the history of sculpture itself, as well as its many styles and techniques, Cemin's inventive forms span the vast expanse of the visual universe. Cemin has been very influential on the younger generation of the 90s and 2000s, mostly in Brazil, his native country, where he became well-known after his participation in the 1992 IXth Documenta in Kassel, curated by Jan Hoet. He defends a holistic approach to art where all of art's parameters are to be explored and exploited. This is shown in his use of different artistic languages, which are sometimes presented in anarchic combination, in order to produce what he calls interference patterns in the mind of the viewer. Cemin began drawing at an early age, contributing to illustrations for magazines such as Planeta in the mid 1960s. In 1975, he enrolled at the cole Nationale Suprieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, where he specialised in etching. Shortly after graduating, he moved to New York City where he worked primarily in printmaking. He began experimenting with sculpture after seeing the 1979 retrospective of Joseph Beuys at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. He exhibited his sculpture for the first time at the Red Bar in 1982, and soon after became a key figure in New York's East Village art scene. Wood. Provenance Fernando Quintana gallery.

Born in 1951 in Cruz Alta, Brazil, Saint Clair Cemin is a prominent postmodern sculptor who currently divides his time between Woodbury, Connecticut, and Hydra, Greece. After studying etching at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris and pursuing printmaking in New York City, Cemin pivoted to sculpture in the early 1980s, quickly becoming a fixture of the East Village art scene. His prolific body of work "cannibalizes" the history of sculpture, blending naturalism with abstract surrealism through a diverse range of styles and techniques. By employing an "anarchic combination" of artistic languages, Cemin seeks to create "interference patterns" in the viewer's mind, a holistic approach that has deeply influenced younger generations of artists, particularly in his native Brazil. His internationally recognized work is featured in prestigious permanent collections, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, and Inhotim in Brazil.
