La légende raconte qu'EUROPE, princesse Phénicienne, fille d'AGENOR Roi TYR, se promenant un jour au bord de la mer avec ses compagnes, fut remarquée par ZEUS.
Emflamé par sa beauté, il se métamorphose en taureau et vint se coucher aux pieds de la jeune fille. Celle -ci d'abord effrayée, s'enhardit, caressa l'animal et s'assit sur son dos.
Aussitôt le taureau se leva et s'élança vers la mer, pénétra dans les flots et s'éloigna du rivage. Tous deux parvinrent jusqu'en CRETE où ZEUS s'unit à la jeune fille.
De ces amours naîtront 3 fils : MINOS , SARPEDON,RHADAMANTE.
Francis Godefroit is a contemporary French sculptor. Godefroit's sculptures, which have a hyper realism of a rediscovered Antique sensuality and could be described as a contemporary neoclassical style due to their Greco-Roman inspiration and use of modern or even trivial materials.
The origin of this style is symbolized by the fiercely contemporary association of graphic, flat representation, supporting a third dimension detaching itself from its gangue. Mythology, as a dreamlike support for the artist's inspiration, brings back to life the myths that fascinated us as children, in a completely new form, and thereby resurrects our childhood fantasies. The creation that becomes our recreation and revisits historical legends in order to reincarnate them in our soul is born from this artistic chimera.
Francis Godefroit was born in 1952, in France.
