Metal Stars

Objectal

18/11/1986 - 18/12/1986

Endowed with a rare dynamism, the OBJECTAL group, through its entirely innovative visual language, skillfully and playfully manipulates space and time, engaging—often without our awareness—our own inclinations and attractions.

Heirs to the renowned Limousin enameling dynasties of the Renaissance, the OBJECTAL group presents striking works, enameled on metal sheets, some incorporating vintage enamel advertising signs into their compositions.

Artists

Objectal

Objectal

Objectal is a group of two artists: Bernard Dreyfuss and Claude Pougny. These two artists studied at the National School of Fine Arts, where they met in 1965. It was then after many joint projects that Objectal was created in 1976. As you will see, there is a bowl in each of their works. This bowl is not a coincidence and is an integral part of their touch. The bowl is the icon of an everyday object present in almost all their works. He is both an integral part of the painting in figuration, as well as in abstraction since 1978.
