About the Artwork
This set of three golden sculptures, created in collaboration with French artist François Hugo in 1960, is a stunning fusion of modern artistry and ancient mythology. Crafted in 23-carat gold, the pieces reflect the timeless allure of gold and its historical ties to divinity and myth. Featuring Greek mythological figures—a Bacchante, a Cymbal Player, and a Flute Player—the sculptures evoke themes of celebration and music while bridging the gap between classical traditions and modernist abstraction.
Hugo’s work invites viewers to explore the symbolic depth of these mythological figures, transcending literal representation to reflect their enduring cultural significance. The collaboration embodies a harmonious dialogue between the richness of the past and the innovation of contemporary art, offering a profound reinterpretation of ancient narratives in a modern context.
