Description
Antoine Dufilho is a French sculptor working with metal and a self-taught artist. Initially studying medicine, his training allowed him to dissect the complexity of human biomechanics. Architectural studies then led him to a new approach to sculptural "bodies," and more particularly to the notion of structure. Once revealed, this structure reveals a striking and precise sequence of creation.
After years of experimentation with different sculptural processes, Dufilho's true style shows an alternation of solids and voids, materializing a skeleton and decomposing forms into successive layers. This sequenced representation creates movement. The dynamic effect is accentuated by an alternation of symmetries and asymmetries, causing a visual effect of acceleration. A kinetic vision of a static object offers the viewer a different interpretation depending on their point of observation.
This style is particularly well suited to representing the artist's other passion: collector cars. This love for the artistic vision of the automobile led Antoine to the creation of his famous car sculptures. He began working with aluminum to sculpt a Bugatti Type 37, one of the jewels in his great-uncle's garage. Today, his collection comprises about thirty models, all bearing the singular style of kinetic creativity specific to Dufilho.
Presentation
Architect, passionate by « Futurism », nephew of famous actor, Jacques Dufilho, Antoine Dufilho is painter himself, sculptor, esthete and the greatest fan of Bugatti. Since his early childhood, he has been surrounded by the family's passion about sportive cars and its' mechanical beauty.
Self-taught man, he has decided to work on the purification of various legendary and exclusive car models, and to decline each car in « series » of different interpretations. These car models, made of aluminum plates, hammered and soldered together, dressed in custom paint, are expression of speed itself, with oval-shaped wheels, reminding us the effect produced by an old-time photographic shutter (of former days).
Such representation aims to make lighter the models and keep an authentic morphology of the automobile, it gives also a complex vision of new multiple curves. This way of representation reminds the mechanical art of an engine or car's front grille, and offers to spectator a special perception of the model from different viewpoint. He seeks to integrate in his artworks all aspects of modernity, and especially by choosing materials.
