The extraordinary sculptures of Belgian artist Jean-Michel Folon
The first half of Belgian artist Jean-Michel Folon's (1934-2005)
career was devoted to posters, illustrations, and television
animations that brought him international acclaim for their
diversity and virtuosity; his illustrations appeared in magazines
including The New Yorker, Fortune, and Esquire. In the 1990s, he
pivoted to sculpture, focusing on statuary and working with both
direct carving and modeling, which he then translated to bronze or
stone. This is the first publication to explore the entirety of
Folon's sculptural work. Drawing inspiration from the Cyclades, the
Etruscans, from African masks and Indian totems, Folon's sculptures
are characterized by their frontality and corporality. Distributed
