Ripollés (1932) - Sculpture, Chica de la rosa - 43 cm - Resin

Resin sculpture by Ripollés, hand-painted and signed, made in his Más de Flors workshop, attached is his authorship certificate 43 cm tall, shipping by Correos de España Very colorful Juan García Ripollés —known as Ripollés— was born in Alzira (Valencia, Spain) in 1932. His mother's death in childbirth led him to Castellón La Plana. His early years were not easy: he gathered horse dung, he was a junkman and a heavy-handed painter, until he moved to Paris in 1954. He wanted to be a painter. And that's where he achieved it. Four years after his arrival, he managed to hang his paintings in the prestigious gallery Drouant David, the same one that had exhibited Picasso and Chagall. Since his return to Spain, in the sixties, his workshop has been nature. Today, at 92 years old, it still is: he paints in the orchard of his manor in the small hamlet of Mas de Flors, in the province of Castellón. During the last five decades, his canvases and engravings have been shown in the best galleries and museums in Amsterdam, New York, Tokyo or Beijing. His large-format sculptures have been installed in parks and in the main streets and squares of Madrid, Seville, Valencia, Lisbon, Venice, Verona, Hertogenbosch or Beijing."} }_NORESPONSE to=final YAML code )); note this is the final answer but ignore the stray text ; but the output must be only the JSON.
