Léo Caillard was born in Paris, France, in 1985. He belongs to this new generation of artists associated with the important changes that have taken place since the 2000s with the advent of the digital era and the new concerns of society.
He is a contemporary artist considered one of the most talented sculptors of his generation. Passionate about history and our relationship to time, he has developed over the past 15 years his own style called “Neo Antique”, which has become over the years a real artistic signature that has influenced part of today’s art.
Anachronism
The artist plays with our relationship to time. Through a mixture of eras and anachronism, he encourages us to reflect on our present in relation to our past. Inspired by science and the concerns of our contemporary society, he invites us to take a fresh look at our time, open to history, in order to rethink our future.
Due to its “timeless” character, marble is his favorite material. He also develops photographic work as well as research around digital art in order to open up dialogues between different mediums.
Artist’s comment
“Recently, there has been a radical return to the past, a sort of “neo-Renaissance” where artists, intellectuals of all stripes, seek to build on classical cultures to regain strong roots with a new way of thinking, as opposed to a linear temporal approach due to the fact that science and technology are leading us to rethink history as a circular, interconnected, almost metaphysical totality.”
