La Californie, Cannes 1961. - Photo by Edward Quinn

La Californie, Cannes 1961.

A large, abstract sculpture with a rough, plaster-like texture dominates an artist's studio at Villa La Californie in Cannes, 1961. Set on a wooden base, the vaguely humanoid form features a torso pierced by a central archway and two arm-like extensions. The parquet floor is strewn with papers, while the wall behind is covered with various artworks, including a large, Cubist-style drawing of a face in profile. Strong light from the left casts deep shadows, emphasizing the sculpture’s rugged surface.
