Along with his wife Claude, François Xavier Lalanne (1908-2008) is the most famous French sculptor of the second half of the twentieth century. His work is characterized by animal imagery. He studied art at the Académie Julian in Paris. When he arrived in the city, he was introduced to many Surrealist and Modernist figures, such as Man Ray, Max Ernst, Marcel Duchamp, Niki de Saint Phalle, Jean Tinguely, and Constantin Brancusi. He is particularly known for his sheep, hens, horses, and pigeons.
Supported by gallerists like Alexandre Iolas, Leo Castelli, Paul Kasmin, and Ben Brown, his work was collected early on by great connoisseurs, including Yves Saint Laurent, Pierre Bergé, Karl Lagerfeld, Peter Marino, Valentino, Terry de Gunzburg, Alberto Pinto, the Rothschilds, the Noailles, Jane Holzer, and Michael S.
