Jean Chauvin

Sort by

Jean Chauvin was born in Rochefort (Charente-Maritime, France) on 30 March 1889. He was the only surviving child of six siblings—including his twin André Joseph. His entire oeuvre is strongly characterised by the themes of birth and twinning. He moved to Paris in 1908, and enrolled at l'École des Arts Décoratifs (the School of Decorative Arts) on 14 March. He then went to the l'École des Beaux-Arts (School of Fine Arts), where he attended sculptor Antonin Mercié's studio starting from 7 January 1909. Chauvin exhibited at the Salon d'Automne and the Salon des Indépendants. He also contributed to the sculpting of La Frize de la danse by Joseph Bernard (currently at the Musée d´Orsay in Paris), but he finally—and definitively—turned towards abstract sculpture.
