Œuvrer pour la sculpture
The Museum of Art and History of Meudon presents “Œuvrer pour la sculpture” (Working for Sculpture), offering a panorama of the history of the medium in France between 1949 and 1978.
Through the personal collection of Denys Chevalier (1921-1978), art critic and president of the Salon de la Jeune Sculpture, the exhibition presents an overview of the thirty annual editions of the Salon, which took place in the parks and gardens of Paris, featuring works by nearly 1500 exhibitors. The works of Ossip Zadkine, dedicated to Denys Chevalier, sit alongside the small editions of Jean Arp and resonate with the sculptures of Alicia Penalba or César.
