FRANCE

Laurent WILGA LERAT dit « LOLEK » Is a sculptor born in Boulogne on May 14, 1984.
A precocious artist, he composed his first drawings and pastels at the age of 10 and offered his first bronzes on display at the age of 12.
Today his naked subjects no longer shock anyone, yet at that time in the religious college he attended, beyond the erotic character that is reproached to him, drawing teachers will say of him that he is without talent and that his drawings are too simplistic.

Yet he reveals an innate sense of balance and generous forms that can be found throughout his already long career. He expresses in his works carnal sensations a little provocative that make him a very talented and very noticed young creator.

After his baccalaureate, he decided to live his passion to the fullest.
A professional artist at an early age, he has been exhibiting in art galleries around the world since 1996.

His works have a unique invoice enhanced with high quality patina.

Originally his clean and ample forms allow him to create without mastering the techniques and easily make his sculptures stable; This “immaturity” will offer him a style and ink his artistic signature.
It is now inseparable from his work.
It offers only numbered original works, always in patinated or painted bronze.

Lolek is a sculptor listed as Drouot & Akoun.
