Antoine Poncet
Vintage hardback coffee table book featuring the work of sculptor, Antoine Poncet. By Denis Chevalier, published in 1961. First edition, 64 pages. Text in French.
"Poncet was highly influenced by the work of Brancusi and Jean Arp, specifically their focus on shape, form and volume. Poncet creates bronzes that appear to be still taking shape in front of the viewer creating a sense of dynamism and transience. Surface texture is of real significance in his work; his sculptures are smoothly polished in order to enhance the play of light."
