ABOUT
Constantin Omin (often signed C. Omin) was a Romanian-born sculptor active in France during the Art Deco period of the 1920s and 1930s. Working primarily in bronze, he became known for elegant, stylised figures that embody the movement’s fascination with modernity, rhythm, and idealised form. His subjects frequently include dancers, athletes, and allegorical female figures, rendered with elongated proportions and flowing, geometric lines. Omin’s sculptures were typically cast in spelter or bronze and mounted on marble or onyx bases, often with subtle cold-painted details. Today his work is appreciated for its refined modelling and strong sense of motion, making it highly collectible within the field of Art Deco sculpture.
