Danielle Orchard

Lévy Gorvy Dayan is thrilled to announce an exhibition of sculptures by Aristide Maillol (1861–1944) in conversation with new paintings by Danielle Orchard (b. 1985), created on the occasion of the exhibition. Staging a dialogue between painting and sculpture that is beyond time, the exhibition will represent visions of form, volume, and line, explored through the female figure.

Central to the practices of both artists is the woman as muse. Here, in scenes domestic and natural, Orchard depicts physical and psychological insights gained in her experiences as a new mother—an infant shares each composition with her female protagonists. Maillol often said, “I invent nothing, no more than the apple tree can pretend to have invented its apples.” His works and those of Orchard are both marked by the impulse towards, in the words of art historian John Rewald, “the expression of truth and the balance of forms.”
