專家說明

“The animal world constitutes the richest and most varied forms on the planet.” Francois-Xavier Lalanne

Inspired by an episode of the Odyssey where Ulysses and his companions flee from the cave of the Cyclops Polyphemus hidden under the belly of sheeps, Francois-Xavier lets his first flock invade his apartment at Impasse Robiquet in Paris in 1965. It allows the artist to bring "the countryside to Paris" and re-enchant the world. Originally designed in wool, Francois-Xavier dresses his ovids in epoxy stone in 1979, allowing them to escape to nature while retaining their pure and antique lines reminiscent of the Egyptian statuary he loves so much. It was in 1996 that the artist finally completed the family of his favourite animal with a Lamb.
