Description
Alain Lacoste (French, 1935–2022) The Soft Underbelly of Europe, 1987 Polychrome bas-relief, crumpled canvas. Signed and dated. Height 35.5, Width 50 cm. Provenance: the collection of Laurent Danchin (1946–2017), writer, essayist and art critic, passed down through the family. Born in Laval, he was destined for a career in teaching before a stay in a psychiatric hospital turned his life on its head; his encounter with Robert Tatin proved decisive. Alain Lacoste transforms reclaimed wood and stone into bas-reliefs populated by intertwined figures and animals, combining graphic design, colour and wordplay. He is regarded as one of the pioneers of French ‘art singulier’.
