He subsequently moved to Paris (1970), where he studied sculpture under the guidance of César and R. Collamarini, and engraving under J. Lagrange. He also attended classes in plastic arts and audiovisual art at the Film Department of Paris VIII.He was honored with prestigious awards, such as the Grand Prix d’Arts Plastiques Jeunes at the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Lyon (1975), the first prize at the Salon d’Automne in Avignon (1980), the silver medal at the Salon d’Art Contemporain in Montreal (1980), and the first prize for sculpture at the Salon de Taverny (1980).
Focusing his exhibition activity primarily in France, where he lives and works, he also played a leading role in founding the group Logos, which consists of fifty international artists (1981). Throughout his artistic career to date, he remains dedicated to the human form, with a particular emphasis on movement. He works mainly with iron, leaving the visible traces of welding on the surface of the metal.
