NOTICE
Marcel André Bouraine, a French sculptor active during the Art Deco period, is famous for his elegant, stylized works that capture grace and femininity. His work is characterized by pure forms and flowing lines, often inspired by mythology and the female figure, dominant themes of Art Deco. Bouraine mainly uses bronze, but also works with other materials, such as ivory and marble, to enrich her compositions.
Bouraine's sculptures are imbued with a delicate refinement, highlighting harmonious poses and slender silhouettes. His works often depict female figures in graceful or dancing attitudes, embodying the elegance and modernity of the period. The finesse of the details and the care taken with the textures contribute to making his sculptures prized by Art Deco enthusiasts.
Bouraine follows in the footsteps of artists such as Demétre Chiparus and Clare Jeanne Roberte Colinet, whose sculptures also embody the Art Deco spirit through idealized, stylized representations of women. Today, her works are appreciated for their refined aesthetic and their ability to evoke the glamorous atmosphere of the 1920s and 1930s.
