A beautifully illustrated, concise critical analysis of the art, careers, and reception of the husbandwife team of artists known as Les LalanneFranoisXavier (19272008) and Claude (19252019) Lalanne were a husbandwife team of artists who created inventive and often surprising works that have been widely admired and collected since the 1960s. This book presents a carefully selected group of sculptures that focus on a shared preoccupation of the artists: the transformation of natural forms to serve new purposes, such as FranoisXaviers giant grasshopper sculpture that opens into a bar and Claudes bench made of galvanized metal branches and vines such that it remains as much a forest as a place to sit. Critical analysis explores the full breadth of the artists careers; considers the complex issues of reception and categorization of their work; and prompts a reevaluation of the place their art occupies in the context of art museums, all while encouraging readers to consider relationships among nature, art, and their own encounters with both.Distributed for the Clark Art InstituteExhibition Schedule: Clark Art Institute, Williamstown, MA(May 8October 31, 2021)
