Presentation

Dominique Pollès dit Pollès is a French sculptor born in Paris in 1945. His favorite subject of study is the human body, in particular that of women.

On July 3, 1966, he discovered sculpture alongside his sculptor friend Enzo Plazota. On July 28, 1970, he moved to Carrara, city of Marble, and will no longer leave the house of Pietrasanta. A few years later, he created his own foundry at home and almost exclusively used bronze for his works. His creations, inscribed in the tradition of Greek sculpture, are a short-circuit between Aristide Maillol and Brancusi, between the mass of one and the tip of the other. The plump but dynamic bodies are all the more attractive thanks to their patina, sensual and polished, while their shape echoes the art of Picasso
