In 1934 Ossip Zadkine chose to set up a studio in Arques, in the Lot, and it was beneath a light that he perceived as Southern that he rediscovered the presence of trees and a soil which nourished his sculpture-work. Just as Lawrence Durrell liked to say that we are "the children of our landscapes," so the South became for Zadkine a place of rebirth or at least of reinvention. |
