Chomo (French, 1907–1999) Couple, 1981 Wire mesh, inlaid with ceramic, plastic and stone, covered in black, silver and red paint. On a signed and dated wooden plinth. H 65 W 26 D 15 cm. Provenance: the collection of Laurent Danchin (1946–2017), writer, essayist and art critic, passed down through the family. Sculptor and founder of the ‘Village d’Art Préludien’ in the Fontainebleau Forest at Achères-la-Forêt, Chomo was the first artist discovered by Laurent Danchin, who visited him every week from 1975 to 1983 and published his account (Chomo, Un pavé dans la vase intellectuelle, Simoen, Paris, 1978). Danchin curated, alongside Martine Lusardy, the exhibition *Chomo, le débarquement spirituel* (Halle Saint Pierre, Paris, 2009–2010), and later, with Aymeric Rouillac, the exhibition *Faites un rêve avec Chomo* (Château, Tours, 2015–2016).
