Reference: Roland Masson, a contemporary French sculptor, stands out for his elegant and original work on the timeless theme of couples and the representation of eternal femininity. Whether using rare marble, precious wood, or bronze, the artist explores these materials with finesse and creativity to express his art. His stylistic mastery of silhouettes and his attention to balanced volumes allow him to achieve artistic perfection. The captivating curves of his sculptures captivate and evoke a subtle sensuality. Roland Masson was born in 1946. A graduate in economics and sociology, Masson turned to sculpture after studying at the École des Beaux-Arts in Poitiers in 1975. One cannot help but be sensitive to the elegance and purity of the lines that were already the prerogative of two great sculptors who inspired Roland Masson at the beginning: Brancusi and Henry Moore. From polished bronze to sumptuous patinated wood, Masson works with elegance and originality, the theme of the eternal feminine. Without concern for detail, without regard for resemblance, his bodies reduced to a movement, evoke, without any doubt, the plasticity of the woman. Blossoming with plump or slender forms, these busts, full of momentum, in the balance of their gestures, seem to play with gravity. See less
