Description
Bronze sculpture with black brushed patina EA II/IV
A precocious artist, he composed his first drawings and pastels at the age of 10 and presented his first bronzes in exhibition at the age of 12.
Today his nude subjects no longer shock anyone, yet at that time in the religious college he attended, beyond the erotic nature of which he was criticized, the drawing teachers said of him that he was without talent and that his drawings were too simplistic.
Yet, he reveals an innate sense of balance and generous forms that can be found throughout his already long career. He expresses in his works somewhat provocative, sensual sensations that make him a very talented and highly regarded young artist.
After graduating from high school, he decided to fully pursue his passion.
A professional artist from a very young age, he has been exhibiting in art galleries around the world since 1996.
Presentation
Born in 1984, in Boulogne Billancourt in the Parisian region, Laurent Wilga Lerat aka LOLEK's career began at the extraordinary age of....12. Indeed, the artist exhibited his first bronzes at this age. However, those days, his work was far from winning unanimous support, as he was blamed for his simple works. He didn't get discouraged, in fact LOLEK continued to create. He obtained his high school diploma, gave up studying and focused on sculpture.
He developed his unique style, it stands out due to its generous forms, profusion of curves and the unique proportions. Nudity is a recurrent theme in his work and is treated sensually, this gives him a provocative reputation, and adds on to his fame. The fact that he didn't receive any formal training in sculpture or bronze work, gives an immature impression, which defines his style and now is his hallmark.
A professional artist, he began exhibiting at an early age, in galleries around the world since 1996. Recently, his work was exhibited in prestigious fairs like Miami Art Fair, London Art Fair, Singapore Art Fair but also the Lux Art Fair in 2016. He is also popular at Drouot sales.
