Demetre Haralamb CHIPARUS (Dorohoi 1886 - Paris 1947)
Art Deco sculptor who worked in Paris for most of his life.
Demetre H. Chiparus was born in Romania in 1886 and then traveled to Paris before World War I to be more involved with his artwork. He attended school in Italy and at the École des Beaux Arts in Paris, and he exhibited at the Salon in 1914. Chiparus was particularly skilled in the technique of chryselephantine, the combination of bronze and ivory to produce dramatic, stylized sculpture. He produced most of his famous works between 1914 and 1933 in Paris: it was an exciting place in the years leading up to World War II, when Art Deco style and swinging good times were in vogue just like in the United States. His later work in the 1920s was influenced by his interest in Egypt, after the excavation of the Pharaoh Tutankhamun. Some of his most exciting works are dancers from the Russian Ballet, French theater, and early motion pictures. Tall and skinny dancers were depicted in motion, dressed in high Art Deco style. Demetre Chiparus worked mainly with the Etling Foundry in Paris, and he died in 1947. His best known and most appreciated works were made between 1914 and 1933.
