artist/ FAVRE

France

aniel Favre was born in 1952 in Bron. He lives and works in Saint-Hélène du Lac in Savoie.

A trained engraver, graduate of the Grenoble School of Fine Arts (1968), Daniel Favre has devoted himself to sculpture since 2002. Reviving a certain classicism in the use of techniques, materials and a formal vocabulary which is part of the tradition of modern sculpture from the beginning of the 20th century, Daniel Favre approaches the theme of the body in various forms, exploring the human anatomy in its most contrasting aspects, through a plastic treatment which places his work on the border of realism and abstraction.
