Jean-Jacques Mancardi - Sculpture

Jean-Jacques Mancardi followed an original route. This artist, so faithful to the canons of classical sculpture, did not go through any art school. Blacksmith and companion of the Tour de France, he began by making steel sculptures. Following an accident, he took up drawing and woodcarving. Then it is the discovery of Carrara, its quarries, its sculptors. He then began to work in marble - white from Carrara or black from Belgium - practicing direct carving.

Without abandoning direct carving in marble, Jean-Jacques Mancardi is converted to bronze, thus gaining a freedom that the sculptor armed with his only chisel will never have, and therefore the possibility of infinitely varying the pattern. He makes his bronzes using the lost wax method.

Currently, the world of Workers and Graffiti artists feeds his inspiration. The workers, in the continuity of the great cathedral builders and to honor these men who build our places of life and work. Graffiti artists, those who express themselves in all media, who color our lives, their murals, descend straight from prehistoric paintings and more recently frescoes to become urban art.
