This spring, Atelier 34zero Muzeum honors the Belgian sculptor Jacques Talmar. The monographical exhibition at Atelier34zero Muzeum accentuates the opulence and roundness of the body. In the 1960's Talmar begins to be interested in big bodies, overweight, chubby, thus allowing the exploration of the abundance of human forms and a play of curves and counter-curves shifting, with a rare sens of volume, from one plan to another.
The artist, on an international level, is part of the research of the opulence of the human body as are Maillol, Botero, Niki De Saint Phalle or Lucian Freud. Sculptures in clay, plaster, bronze or lead with a very meticulous finish, make these sometimes desperate figures, formally accomplished sculptures with a beauty residing in the fulness of the form.
