Mausolée architecture

Boisecq Simone (1922-2012) — Alger, 1922 ; Auray, 2012 ; nationalité : Française — 4th quarter 20th Century

School : France

Description

Plâtre ; A la fin des années 1990, Simone Boisecq modèle plusieurs architectures aux connotations funéraires et oniriques. Elles ont un aspect à la fois futuriste et très ancien. Les murs élevés, les hautes arches et la flèche pointue confèrent à l’édifice une monumentalité implacable et inquiétante. Un mausolée est un édifice imposant abritant un tombeau mais les modèles imaginés par Boisecq n’étaient pas destinés à être construits.
