Richard Di Rosa and sculptures
Beethoven ?
his home town.
In 1981, Figuration Libre propelled him onto the art scene
along with his brother Hervé. His first one man show in Tokyo in 1987 was
the start of a limitless journey, exploring the universal appeal of the
plasticity of visual language.
Still lifes, bunches of flowers, trophies of comic features, skeletons from a natural history museum, smiling monsters, a heron with its long neck joined to a long beak, a magician reminiscent of the fairy Carabosse... Di Rosa’s work takes material from the myths and fables of childhood. Sculptures that remind us of the concept and of the age of apprenticeship, actors in a kind of theatre of nations unhindered by any barrier, language or form, suggesting a childlike innocence & humour readily
accessible to culturally diverse viewers.
