Dominique Pollès FR, b. 1945

“When I look at a feminine body, it's splendid, it's musical.”
The bronze sculptures of Dominique Pollès (1945, FR) are female nudes that range from just five inches tall to more than life-size.  His sculptures convey a surprising sense of volume, contour and texture. The appeal of the polished patinas ranges from the traditional browns and greens to bright turquoise, rich reds and cool silver. His subject is almost always the female form with twisted, truncated torsos, emphasizing the curved, sensual lines of the female contours.
