Joseph Constant (Constantinovitch) (Palestinian , 1892-1969)Les hérons signed with incised signature 'Constant' (on the left leg)wood115 x 47cm (45 1/4 x 18 1/2in).Executed c. 1930Footnotes:LiteratureJewish Artists of the school of Paris 1905-1939, Somogy Éditions d'Art, Paris 2015, p. 35.Joseph Constant was born in Palestine in 1892 and grew up in Odessa. In 1912, Constant enrolled in the School of Fine Arts in Odessa, where he studied painting. In 1919, with many other artists, Constant and his wife fled Russia for Palestine aboard the Ruslan. In Tel Aviv, he made friends with the painter Alexandre Frenel. In 1923, after his travel to Egypt, Turkey, and Romania, Constant arrived in Paris, where he studied art. In the beginning of his career, Constant painted animal paintings. He used pencil, charcoal, and ink and also produced watercolors and oils on canvas. During the 1930s, he mainly produced animal sculptures. He worked in stone, bronze, and, especially, in wood. He visited the Jardin des Plantes every day, where he found inspiration. He was a member of a group of Israeli artists called the 'Animalists.' In Paris, Constant also developed a writing career. He wrote several books under the name Michel Matveev. His most famous work Les Traqués (The Hunted) was published in 1933 and relates the tragic story of Jews traveling across Europe in search of a safe haven. In 1936, he was awarded the Deux Magots Prize for his book 'Etrange Famille' (Strange Family). In 'La Cité des Peintres' (The Painters' City), published in 1947, he wrote about the life of the Russian Jewish artists in Montparnasse. Joseph Constant and his friend the painter Alexandre Frenel are known as the artists of the School of Paris who introduced French Impressionism and realism in Israel.This sculpture is a typical bas-relief of his production in the 1930s, when Constant represented the animal world; a biblical metaphor charged with Jewish symbolism.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
