About this artwork

Socrates walked as usual while he reflected on Parmenides' themes: being and not being ... We can see in his face the pangs of reflection! But it is especially when he starts to evoke possible consequences given by the philosophers to come: "to be or not to be" one could say in front of a skull, or another to write a thesis on "being and nothingness "(and hundreds more that we will not inflict on you), so much so that his features change his hair… bristles his eyes come out of the face!
An artist, peripatetic like him, who crossed him made a sculpture that nobody wanted at the time ... Here is a replica. It is offered for your personal interpretation: it contains hundreds of the Master's strangest expressions ...
Small sculpture in painted wood, a little fragile, to be modulated in all directions, nicely.

« "With the modularity of my sculptures, the spectator/collector is no longer just "looking". They become actors. I wrote the score, they become my interpreters." »

Jean Paul Boyer’s sculptures have been exhibited throughout his native France, Europe and China. Boyer continuously questions how to work with the air, or the “void”, that surrounds the material of the sculpture. He denies having a style, and allows himself the freedom to delve into all interpretations and techniques. His process starts by fabricating a model with any material he happens to have on hand, then the works evolve using wood, metal, marble, cardboard, etc.
