Florian Fouché

Florian Fouché's artistic practice encompasses sculpting, drawing, and photography. He creates sculptures by manipulating and placing existing forms together, and occasionally fabricating new forms from different materials. Some of his resulting pieces possess a childlike sense of humor, such as a 65-kilogram "toy" made of concrete with minuscule wheels that cannot move. Other sculptures resemble hallucinations or poetry, sourced from old documents and imbued with imagination rather than instruction.

Florian Fouché's current project involves transposing his work into the limited space of an exhibition room in the Museum of the Romanian Peasant in Bucharest, a museum that was once a propaganda tool of Ceausescu but now charts the disappearing world of Romanian peasants. Florian Fouché, who studied at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris, is a member of the RADO group, formed after Jean-François Chevrier's seminar "Des territoires."
