These three sculptures are part of Cris Boinn's "Magot" (or "Ether Warriors") series, works that explore the human figure through extreme synthesis.
Brief Description
The group features three stylized anthropomorphic figures, crafted with different materials and finishes: one in terracotta tones on a gold base, one in textured gold/bronze, and one black topped with a metal disk reminiscent of an oriental hat. The forms are solid, angular, and recall the appearance of ancient totems or idols.
Critical Analysis
Spiritual Minimalism: Boinn reduces the human figure to a few geometric planes, almost as if they were three-dimensional ideograms. The title of the series suggests that these are not simple statues, but entities carrying ancestral knowledge.
Material Contrast: The artist plays with surfaces: the roughness of the central golden figure contrasts with the compactness of the black one, creating a dialogue between earth, metal, and shadow.
The Symbolism of the Hat: The black figure with the The metal disc introduces an element of sacredness and distinction, evoking the image of a monk or pilgrim in meditation.
Conclusions
Together, these works create a small "council" of wise men that transforms the space into a place of reflection. The strength of the work lies in its ability to evoke a solemn human presence with very few strokes.
Price: Individually, these sculptures generally sell for between £400 and £700 each. The complete set of three pieces can be estimated at around £1,500-£1,800
