Pablo Puvis (1881-1973) Gerard Puvis was born in Lyon, France in 1950. He studied in Paris and Madrid is now internationally recognised as on of France's great contemporary artists. His works have been shown in exhibitions around the world, including Belgium Spain, Switzerland and Japan. At home his art is recognised in many displays and exhibits, including "Chateaux Bordeaux" at the Georges Pompidou Center. Each of us tried to peel off the foil from a large wine bottle, to model the metal between our fingers, to feel its texture. In the best of cases, the emblem stays visible and the rest of the foil rolls into a hard, compact mass. The Puvis came onto the scene. He, too, gave in to the temptation to prolong the pleasure of the palate by unfurling the famous foil necks. Hisnecks. His fingers, much more robust than ours caressed the material, the collar came alive, the metal surrendered to his touch and gave way to reveal before our flabbergasted eyes, the most intoxicating of masquerades. This was born a comedy of the wine, all dressed in lead. Sculptured in the throws of the jubilation which follow the last sip of wine. These jolly fellows, in the colours of grands crus represent for lovers of wine what lead soldiers do for aficionados of warfare. Lucky figures for wine lovers in love with the fine arts, they have conquered the enchanted universe of collectors. |
