Active during the early to mid-20th century, his work exemplified the sleek, geometric lines and stylized forms characteristic of Art Deco. Ouillon-Carrère often sculpted figures that embodied elegance and modernity, with a focus on dynamic poses and intricate detailing. He worked with materials such as bronze and marble, achieving a sophisticated aesthetic that appealed to contemporary tastes. His sculptures captured the essence of the Art Deco era depicting the concept of modern life - in particular, that of the modern woman in rhythmic, sensual and aerodynamic poses taken from the new forms of dance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Art Deco Period: \u003c\/strong\u003ealthough Art Deco derives its name from the great 1925 Paris Exhibition, ‘L’Exposition Internatlionale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes’, the term is now generally applied to the typical artistic productions of the 1920’s and 1930’s. It might best be characterised as an attempt to unite arts with industry, embracing the machine age and repudiating the old antithesis of ‘Fine’ and ‘Industrial’ art. The sources of the Art Deco movement include Egyptian and Mayan Art, Cubisim, Fauvism and Expressionism, heavily influencing the chief force underlying all Art Deco with the emphasis upon geometric patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OUILLON-CARRERE, FERNAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48004473028844,"sku":"9646","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2614\/8594\/files\/Speard.jpg?v=1786707285","url":"https:\/\/hickmet.com\/products\/demetre-chiparus-dancer-of-lebanon-9647_01-1","provider":"Hickmet Fine Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
