Iris Rousseau
Rosseau's work represents masterful sculptures, expressive portraits and delicate ornate figurines. Her sculptures are handmade in bronze, granite, or clay.With her distinctive style, Iris Rosseau has created a name for herself in Germany and beyond during the last few years as an artist of the modern impressionist school. Unperturbed by the latest trends of the contemporary scene, Iris Rosseau intuitively models her sculptures based on the classic principles of aesthetics, beauty, and harmony. The artist, born in Munich in 1942 spent over 20 years traveling the world and studying past civilizations, esoteric symbolism and archaic forms of expression at their places of origin.
The result of these experiences as well as her ties of friendships, the exchange of artistic ideas and the collaboration with contemporary colleagues have enriched her sensibility and approach to her work.
Today Iris Rousseau is an established, internationally recognized sculptress, whose works cover in particular life-size bronze sculptures, portraits, small plastics, child and animal sculptures as well as reliefs, whereby female acts have come to represent her brand name.
The artist is also comissioned to sculpt busts of various personalities from politics, economics, medicine and science.
Iris Rousseaus‘s work was exhibitioned in innumerable galleries at home and abroad, as well as at international artist- and handicraft fairs. Her works can be found in galleries and in many public spaces, such as parks, hotels, hospitals and church yards, and are collected world-wide by art lovers.
