Conceptual, Sculpture, Art with Architecture

Born in 1955 in Paris, Dominique Thevenin, first completed a handicraft training, before he begans to work as a freelance artist in Grasse, southern France in the mid-1980s.

In 1986 his exhibition activity began with a solo exhibition at the Galerie Suzanne Pons in Cannes.

In 1997, he gained great popularity in Germany with a double exhibition in the Gallery Schüppenhauer and the sculpture park of the Wasserwerk-Gallery Lange in Siegburg, Germany. Since then he continuously takes part in numerous international art fairs.

Dominique Thevenin makes heavy iron sculptures float in the air. This seemingly impossible is realized in his objects - pillars, angles and steel plates move weightless or wind objects made of iron dance freely in the wind. He irritates our perception in his work. Heaviness becomes light, the static moves. His works are represented in many private and public collections in France and Germany.

His floating steel sculptures are located in many major public and private collections in Germany, France, Belgium and the United States.
