Marcel André Bouraine
Marcel André Bouraine (1886-1948) is a French sculptor. He studied sculpture under the direction of Joseph-Alexandre Falguière. Captured by the Germans during the First World War, he was interned in Switzerland. Back in Paris, he exhibited at the Salon des Tuileries in 1922. After his beginnings still permeated by academicism, Bouraine revealed himself in the 1925s as one of the most representative sculptors of Art Deco . Bouraine is a member of the Société des Artistes Français and participates in the Salon d'Automne. In 1928 he collaborated with Gabriel Argy-Rousseau who commissioned several sculptures, as well as sometimes with his friend Pierre Le Faguays. He also exhibited two monumental sculptures at the 1937 Universal Exhibition in Paris.
