FR : François Pompon (1855-1933), sculpteur bourguignon, installé à Paris, met d'abord son talent au service d'artistes prestigieux comme Auguste Rodin et René de Saint-Marceaux, tout en se spécialisant dans le portrait. Après des années d'un travail exigeant et discret, il développe une ?uvre personnelle dédiée à la sculpture animalière. Animé par la volonté de saisir l'essence profonde de l'animal, il s'appuie sur une observation attentive des modèles vivants et une maîtrise subtile de la lumière. Son style, à la fois réaliste, suggestif et épuré, fait naître une harmonie des volumes et une pureté des contours, capables d'émouvoir avec une immédiateté saisissante. Cet ouvrage retrace le parcours d'un sculpteur passionné, dont chaque création, du Sanglier à la Chouette, jusqu'à l'emblématique Ours blanc, révèle un regard attentif et profondeur sensible sur le vivant. Pensé comme un outil de référence, il réunit une biographie richement illustrée, des textes d'analyse, le catalogue raisonné de l'artiste, ainsi que ses livres de comptes - autant de ressources précieuses pour comprendre, documenter et étudier en profondeur l'?uvre de Pompon. ENG : Raised in Burgundy before moving to Paris, François Pompon (1855-1933) began his sculpting career by assisting leading artists, including Auguste Rodin and René de Saint-Marceaux, all while specializing in portraiture. After performing demanding and anonymous labor for several years, he fashioned his own body of work devoted to animal sculpture. Driven by a desire to capture the very essence of animal life, he based his art on the careful examination of live models and a subtle yet masterful use of light. His style, at once realistic, evocated and refined, presents harmonious volumes ans pure contours that creates emotion with a striking immediacy. This book retraces the career of a passionate sculptor, whose evry creation - from Sanglier to Chouette to the emblematic Ours blanc - is evidence of his attentive, deeply mindful view of living things. Concieved as a reference work, it features a richly illustrated biography, analytical texts, a catalogue raisonné and the artist's account book - a wealth of ressources to help understand, document and perform through studies of Pompon's output. 0 g.
