Following this severe discipline that is metalwork, he is passionate about another material: BRONZE and bsp “The female body, the male-female duality and the questioning of identity are my essential themes . In my evolution as a Sculptor, I have never ceased to shape, to purify in order to achieve curves that are simplified down to the essential. Sculpture is an adventure, a movement of life that takes me with force. I commit without knowing the outcome. The installation of my art foundry workshop in Touraine allows me to follow my work from the creation to the mastery of bronze: Wandering, drawings, castings, cast, chiselling, Patina. »Xavier ALVAREZ
