{"id":75,"count":39,"description":"Herv\u00e9 Wahlen is a copper-ware sculptor who has been\u00a0practicing his specialty since the 1980s. He has revived\u00a0the traditional forms and techniques of coppersmithing,\u00a0working in particular with the historical tools of the\u00a0famous Gabriel Ren\u00e9 Lacroix.\r\n\r\nHerv\u00e9 Wahlen\u2019s sculptures are a display of supple,\u00a0pure, almost organic lines. They are enhanced by\u00a0light, made possible by the development of a very subtle\u00a0patina. The light emanating from Herv\u00e9 Wahlen\u2019s work\u00a0is obtained through the discontinuity of the surface of\u00a0his creations and the use of gold leaf. They are also\u00a0polished with wax to achieve a sensual finish.\r\n\r\nHerv\u00e9 Wahlen collaborated with Peruvian artist Fabian Sanchez to create a monumental work for the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul. He has exhibited extensively in France, Switzerland, the United States and the United Kingdom and was awarded the Fondation de la Vocation de Paris prize in 1984.\r\n\r\nHis sculptures are part of many prestigious collections- both private, such as the collections of Bill Gates, Paloma Picasso and Peter Marino, and public, such as the DRAC Ile-de-France. In 1997, one of his works entered the collection of the Fonds national d\u2019art contemporain (FRAC) in France.\r\n\r\nIn 2021, his <em><a href=\"https:\/\/maisonparisienne.fr\/en\/oeuvre\/torsion-2021-ii\/\">Torsion<\/a><\/em> lamp entered the collection of\u00a0the Mobilier National.","link":"https:\/\/maisonparisienne.fr\/en\/artiste\/herve-wahlen\/","name":"Herv\u00e9 Wahlen","slug":"herve-wahlen","taxonomy":"artiste","parent":0,"meta":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.1 -
