Bronzes Prehistory I exaggerated the proportions of VENUS DE LAUSSEL A LA CORNE a little to tell a story of aesthetic bears. The artist of the time is no longer there to contest this appropriation! 25,000 years ago, let our imagination run wild, bears discovered art in a cave in the Dordogne and the feminine beauty of that time. No wonder myths and legends from all over the... View

Bronzes Bears column with three balloons €13,500.00 These three balancing bears complicated their act by juggling balloons. They are very focused because as in life they depend on each other not to fall the red of the balloons contrasts with a rich brown patina. I asked my young intern, Jackob, to write a few lines on this sculpture. Here they are : In front of these three bears, we feel like we are part... Add to cart
Bronzes Bear and his two cubs €2,800.00 A bear trains his two cubs in acrobatic postures, just as I used to play "circus" with my cousins as a child. These were great moments when we imagined ourselves taking immeasurable risks in front of an amazed audience. I didn't make a career in the circus, and far be it from me to represent my bears on a ring, prisoners of trainers! They're having the... View
Bronzes Games €2,700.00 Variation of the bear and the cub I started from the theme of learning to create this very designed bronze. Its rounded shapes invite caressing! The protagonists look into each other's eyes in a mirror effect, the little one saying to himself “when I grow up”, and the big one” when I was little”, in a never ending game of generations. Brown patina with... Add to cart
Bronzes Bear with three fish €2,700.00 Well placed on its hind legs, this bear cub looking towards the sky thanks mother nature for having allowed him to do such good fishing. If this lasts, salmon would be on the verge of extinction!! It is a sculpture that highlights an expression of gratitude and hope. The slightly shimmering warm brown patina, brings out the green of the fish. Add to cart
Bronzes A king’s feast €2,850.00 The bear cub is very happy to have made such a good catch, the fish a little less so, but that's life! We all depend on the food chain. So here's a small-format sculpture on the "bear and fish" theme, which I always take up with great pleasure. The warm brown patina of the bear contrasts with the green hue of the fish, obtained with ferric nitrate. Add to cart
Bronzes In the family €3,900.00 The calm, attentive bear is the center of the world for her five playful cubs.

Bronzes Balancing on the ice floe €7,200.00 I returned to the theme of the polar bear with his little one to this time finalize this acrobatic “parent-child” relationship in bronze. The teddy bear humorously punctuates this sculpture in a very pure way. I don't know if Paul Emile Victor would have liked my work but, in any case, I thought of him when modeling this piece. A nod to Apoutsiak who... View
Bronzes Drum Shaman Bear €5,200.00 I discovered at the flea market a very beautiful old photo of a Central Asian shaman wearing a bear skin, the animal's head covering his skull. I also remember a scene from a western by the Coen brothers “TRUE GRIT” in which we see a healer on horseback covered in bear skin emerge from a dark forest, a rather exceptional scene. These representations made... View
Bronzes Bear juggling fish €5,500.00 A brown bear juggling with the product of his catch for his pleasure and that of his cubs. Entertainment is rare in Kamchatka. Few tourists to get their teeth into. The fish defies the laws of gravity, so hard on the sculptor! This animal bronze sculpture is part of the "bears and fish" series (which I have not finished exploring). Warm brown patina for... View
Bronzes Tickles €2,500.00 What parent has not caressed their baby's belly, accompanying this gesture by affectionate facial expressions ? The glances they exchanged are then full of confidence. So, what could be closer to us than this bear playing with their cub? Small round and soft bronze with a warm brown patina View
Bronzes Bear in Kamchatka €5,900.00 A revisited version of FISHING IN KAMCHATKA, this sculpture tells an additional story. KAMCHATKA is the ARCADIA of bears, as the salmon resource is inexhaustible there. A fisch escapes : no big deal, the fisherman looks at the fugitive with amusement. He returns home with a determined step to feed his family, like the bear MARTIN of the fairy tales. A nod... View
Bronzes Two bears entwined €1,400.00 I started from the impression left on me by a photo of two embracing white bear cubs warming themselves in an excavation made in the snow. I made two brown lovers exchanging glances! View
Bronzes The lovers €3,500.00 The image of these lovers comes to my mind frequently. I have done several studies of it in different formats, including this one. A couple of bears who love each other sitting on a bench or a rock, may be a vague childhood memory of lovers of Peynet…. View
Bronzes Malanka €6,800.00 Malanka is a traditional Ukrainian folk holiday.Both parents are the pillars around which children revolve. I used a warm, brown patina with lighter backgrounds. When modeling this sculpture, I thought of the children under the bombs, wishing them a better future. View
Bronzes Sheltered €1,700.00 I met this bear, one rainy autumn day, at the bend of a path in the forest of Hez! In any case, I like to believe it... View
Bronzes Big bear and his little one €36,000.00 This bronze animal sculpture, both dynamic and rounded, is currently presented by the Platini gallery in Crans Montana. Switzerland is one of the traditional territories of the bear, and so I’m delighted to see it set up “in the city”. Outdoors, sculptures tent to take on a whole new dimension. The changing play of light brings out different angles of... View
Bronzes A Little Wonder €3,500.00 A resumption of the theme "First child" for this sculpture which I created on the birth of Iris, my latest little grand-daughter. I applied myself to expressing what it feels like to be in front of a new-born baby, a mixture of worry for their future life in a changing world, and ofwonder. View
Bronzes Big Quickly €8,800.00 I don’t know where this bear is going so quickly……Perhaps he has just learned of the arrival of the salmon in the Kamchatka Rivers! View
Bronzes Fish race This bear was born from a moment of inspiration, very quickly, just after consulting the book "Land of the bears". Here he is, having fun, not knowing "that he sums up the beauty of life at this end of the world" View
Bronzes Four pizzlys €11,200.00 To think outside the box, I tackled pizzlys, the fruit of an amorous encounter between Grizzly Bears and Polar Bears. “Coffee with milk...” bears. The song "Mélangez-vous" by Pierre Perret, which should be part of the school repertoire, is not far off the mark. Bears are not racist and they try to see further by perching on top of each other! View
Bronzes Father and Daughter €14,900.00 The memory of being happily seated on the shoulders of a father, a hero in the eyes of this little girl. Little by little life will change this image. I wanted to fix this moment of perfect harmony. Add to cart
