"La Californie", Cannes 1961.
A large, abstract sculpture of cut and assembled sheet metal stands in the center of the cluttered "La Californie" studio in Cannes, 1961. The work, a stylized, seated figure in a Cubist manner, is primarily white with sections of gray and dark metal joined by visible rivets. The surrounding space is filled with other artworks, including mounted bicycle seats and handlebars, paintings, and sketches. Sunlight streams in from the left, illuminating the sculpture and casting deep shadows across the creative workspace.
