Marcel André Bouraine (1886-1948)
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 imbued with academicism, Marcel Bouraine revealed himself in the 1925s as one of the most representative sculptors of Art Deco. He is a member of the Society of French Artists and participates in the Salon d'Automne. In 1928 he collaborated with Gabriel Argy-Rousseau who commissioned several sculptures from him, as well as sometimes with his friend Pierre Le Faguays. He also exhibited two monumental sculptures at the Universal Exhibition of 1937 in Paris.
