Philippe HIQUILY quickly developed his “direct metal” technique inspired by Julio González after graduation from the school of Beaux-Arts in 1953. He explored for more than half a century the work of metal (iron, brass, bronze, steel) in all its forms. From “couplings” of sculpted figures, everyday objects to anthropomorphic pieces of furniture, he develops a unique sculptural language around his favorite themes of women, balance and movement.
