Venus de Lespugue at the Musee de l’homme
Part of the permanent collection of the Musee de l’Homme in Paris, the Venus de Lespugue is a fantastic totem carved in Mammouth Ivory 28 000 years ago with this curvy and symmetrical.
What is really striking in this Venus is the dimension and curves of the feminine's part of the body that lead the scientist to think that she was a totem of Fecondity or maternity. The statuette would be possibly describing a woman giving birth to another women.
One of the earliest piece of art and therefore a very important inspiration for many modern and contemporary artist such as Niki de Saint Phalle, Picasso ofr Louise Bourgeois.
More recently the young Romanian artist Alexandra Sand exhibited a corpus of works entitled Another Self.
CURVY VENUS
These new pieces explore the theme of the eternal curves of women. retranscrit in the jewellery.
Inpsired by the etremely curvy Venus de Grimaldi found in 1890 but dating from 20 000 BC, our curvy rings.
At Musee de Lh’omme in Paris the exhibition Art et Prehistorie is showcasing many works inspired by these first symbols carved by our ancestors. Putting the Venus de Lespugues in first place.
LA PARABOLE DE L’HISTOIRE
Our new 18k yellow gold parabole earrings available in yellow gold and white diamonds or white gold with blue sapphires has this very parabolic shape that takes us to continue in the theme of curves.
Bernard Venet knows about curves and arches with his works in steel. His newest work Parabole de l’Histoire was exhibited outdoor on Place Vendôme earlier this year in March and April pushing forward our love for curves.
