Lot 297

DIRK DE KEYSER (b. 1958)
Le Vent (The Wind)
Bronze, 176cm high

Dirk De Keyzer was born in Sleidinge, East Flanders on 19th December, 1958.

He enrolled at the art academy of Eeklo as a night student, while maintaining his day job, until in the mid 1980s when he became a professional sculptor. In his self-titled monograph published by Absolute Art Gallery and Editions Art in Belgium he is quoted as saying “‘Being too serious is never a good thing’. His female figures, for instance, are elegant as well as sensual. They often flaunt rather provocative high breasts, though they are usually dressed. In fact, their clothing is a pretext for the artist to add lively details and give the figure an extra aesthetic dimension”. The present work ‘De wind’ or ‘Le vent’ was purchased by the current owners in 2004 from Galerie Vivendi in Paris. The handsome price of €16,500 was paid for the piece and it has been enjoyed in their garden in South Dublin since.

A copy of the monograph accompanies this lot, and Le Vent is illustrated with a full page on p.31.
