César
1921-1998
César Baldaccini (born 1921, Marseille 1921 - died 1998, Paris) was, together with Arman, the most important representative of "Nouveau Réalisme". Starting in 1949, César welded metal sculptures from prefabricated components and, starting in 1960, exhibited compressed automobile parts ("Compressions"). This was followed in 1966 with casts of body shapes and his "Expansions" made from expandable polyurethane foam.
