Pierres du clocher
1993
Parvine Curie
Works on paper
32,5 x 25 cm
Demonstrating mastery and a clear preference for classic materials such as stone, wood, and bronze, her solid and compact works are strongly rooted in the earth and yet manifest a place and path toward light. They demonstrate the artist’s mystic quest amid the wealth of materials.
Parvine Curie
France
Born in 1936
French sculptor.
Curie’s first works evoke a legendary world full of fairies, imaginary animals, and primitive style figurines. She works by assembling a range of materials. Her work, influenced by journeys to historical or sacred places, has a monumental character. Her sculpture recounts the original myths or refers explicitly to religious traditions, such as Romanesque architecture, the pyramids and Eastern gods.
