Sixty works of French sculptor Jean-Charles Pigeau are on display at the Padma Art Space in Beijing since April 13.
The solo exhibition, entitled A Journey through Cultures, presents Pigeau's works on Chinese Buddhism, Taoist beliefs and the porcelain culture, besides works on the ancient Mayan civilization of Mexico.
Pigeau, who graduated from l'Ecole nationale superieure des Beaux-arts de Paris, has been traveling around countries with ancient civilizations since the 1990s, creating contemporary art pieces with inspiration drawn from historical and cultural scenes.
His friend, French critic Philippe Piguet described his works as in a form between architecture and sculpture.
