- Didier_Walter abstract "Didier Walter (1959–1995) is a French kinetic sculptor.He was first influenced by Alexander Calder and invented 'mobiles'. Watching for the first time 2001: A Space Odyssey by Stanley Kubrick, Didier Walter discovered a new experimental field with its minimal and spatial conception of kinetic art. He thus created his masterpiece 2001, around 1994, paying tribute to Kubrick and succeeding in recreating through the movement of the kinetic sculpture the aesthetics of floating in the film.His most active period was between 1989 and 1995.DIDIER WALTERBorn on April 4, 1959 of parents storekeepers.General practitioner becomes.Open his workshop in Paris in 1987.Begins his collection of mobile sculptures by 1989March 25, 1995 disappears.A falling star of the modern art of the mobile sculptures.Didier Walter's quotation in 1993:"I work sculpture for four years now, but of nobody cannot say how many years of previous preparation I needed to begin to work. I am 34 years old and am seriously supported by my assistant Marcello Morra. He brought me an indispensable technical support in the realization of sculptures.These sculptures, what are they?Closed and completely hermetic monolithic blocks in the curiosity of the spectator, the often very impressive dimensions (3m of length, Im20 of section, up to 10 meters in length and a more reduced section of 20cm x 20cm).These blocks are in movement around often invisible axes which are sometimes ropes of steel tightened between masts of stainless steel of height going to 6 meters giving them this strange impression of floating. Monoliths, articulating some on the others, engender a complex movement, always renewed, and thus unexpected.”Events in the 1980s and 1990Collective exhibition in the Fair of ÉvreuxParticipation to a collective to VenceCollective of artists in ParisOrder of a monumental outside piece of art by the castle of Giverville (France, Eure Department); installed in 1989Three personal exhibitions in the gallery CREMNITER-LAFFANOUR, in ParisCollective of artists in Berlin, Gallery Samuelis BaumgaarteExhibition in the Didier Walter's personal workshopCollective exhibition Gallery Eric TOUCHALEAUMETemporary installation of a mobile sculpture, in the angles of the street of the Seine and the street Jacob in Paris.(Not exhaustive list)An alphabet primer in movement A work to be completed. The artist having disappeared before the millennium, his project of alphabet primer in movement could inspire new creations and artistic installations.Didier Walter : "The sculpture will be mobile. Its components articulating some in the others, they invent a poetry which participates in the landscape, some the branches of a tree, moved by the wind. The sculpture will be placed so as to belong to the children of the school: it will be also visible by the passers-by; she will have to find her definitive place in agreement with the scale and the geometry of the building. The school playground between pedestrian way and building can be anticipated to this installation. The dimensions of the sculpture will be generous, deploying on several meters. The relationship of parts between them is powerful, and their movement is slow, heavy, and silent. The artist works with the classic calligraphy a lot, and the alphabet primer in movement adds a dimension of recognition to the school. Big arm will support the letters which will move around the core. It is a game between the knowledge (the central monolith) and the communication (letters in movement). A quite particular attention will be worn in the used materials, to require no specific maintenance. This realization will be executed in the workshop of the artist in Paris Xlème.
