Hannah A. Laoust
The art of movement sculpture. Originally an American mother, Jane Laoust, a dancer with Roland Petit, and the scion of a family of sculptors for three generations, Hannah Laoust has always been immersed in the world of dance and sculpture. A classical dancer herself, it was quite natural that she decided to devote herself to bronze work by combining her two passions: working with the material by sculpting the woman in movement, the woman who dances. She has been exhibiting since 1988 in France and abroad around her favorite themes, which are movement studies and expression studies. Winner of “Défi-Jeunes” in 1991, she created her own brand of “utility sculpture” in 1992 (Hannah Ligne Déco), offering her sculptures in jewelry, fountains, lighting, staircase sculpture... She executes her bronzes from A to Z in the family workshop in the Paris region in 1992 (excluding pig iron), and in various formats, making it possible to offer creations accessible to all. His creations are airy, delicate and bear witness to an inner impulse where the form, fixed in bronze, invites contemplation.

Figurative sculptures around the theme of dance and women in movement, by connecting two arts that have always nourished her: sculpture or classical dance.

Transcribing the love of life through femininity, where the dancing woman symbolizes strength and poetry in suspended moments of grace.

Since lockdown and for personal reasons, Hannah Laoust has taken a step back. However, she can be found on the artist market in Montparnasse, Place Edgard Quinet, where her creations are exhibited and sold directly to the public. Your gaze is lost among all these women who dance, pose, meditate, and are so many invitations to pose in the present moment while looking up. An delight for the senses where the variety of formats offered, from simple jewelry to more imposing shapes, makes it possible to make its creations accessible to all.
