Pierre Laurel (1892-1962) was a French sculptor who is best known for his Art Deco sculptures of animals and children. He was born in Rezé, France, on August 29, 1892. He studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he was a student of Jean Antoine Injalbert. After graduating, he worked as an assistant to the sculptor François Pompon. Laurel's early work was influenced by the Art Nouveau movement, but he later adopted a more simplified and geometric style that was typical of Art Deco. His sculptures are characterized by their graceful lines and their use of stylized forms. He often used bronze, marble, and wood as his materials.

Laurel's sculptures were exhibited in major exhibitions in Paris, including the Salon d'Automne and the Salon des Tuileries. He received several awards for his work, including the Prix Blumenthal in 1922.

Laurel's work can more... be seen in the collections of many museums and galleries, including the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. He died in Paris on September 8, 1962.

Laurel's sculptures are a reminder of the Art Deco era, when artists were inspired by the beauty of nature and the machine. less...
