Alain Kirili is a sculptor of verticality
and modeling. His work emphasizes an
“aesthetics of spontaneity” and seeks
its formal unity through the variety of
materials he employs in a quest for
“organic simplicity.” Recently he has
been working on the monumental
aspects of sculpture in public spaces (at
the campus of the University of Bourgogne
in Dijon, in Paris and Grenoble). Alain Kirili
was commissioned by the Ministère de la
Culture to install the sculpture of the 20th
century in the Tuileries in Paris.
