Marie-Jo Bourron – Sorcery and Matter – Original, off-market edition

One of the 20 E.A. copies (artist’s proofs) numbered in Roman numerals, bearing the HC XXXII / L mark. This copy is enriched with five signed lithographs, distributed at the beginning and end of the work, and with a signed autograph inscription by Marie-Jo Bourron.

Dedicated to the sculptural work of Marie-Josèphe Bourron (1931–2021), Sorcery and Matter explores a universe where the shaping of figures and the expressiveness of bodies evoke Rodin and Camille Claudel. The title echoes the freedom with which the sculptor works with earth, bronze, marble, resin and patinated plasters.

A pupil of Étienne-Martin at the Beaux-Arts de Paris from 1972 to 1978, Marie-Jo Bourron has exhibited in France, the United States, Germany and Switzerland.
