Paul Beckrich's figures are created in an intensive dialogue between the matter and the artist, which always begins with the modelling of the head. "As my state of mind flows into my works, I therefore work very consciously when I am calm. I deliberately take a great deal of time to model the face, as it reflects the soul of the artwork. Being able to work artistically in this way makes me just proud and happy. A happiness that I would like to pass on with my work." explains Paul Beckrich.

Born in Brittany in 1955, Paul Beckrich was influenced early on by the creativity of his mother, who had previously worked as a first-hand and designer in a Parisian haute couture house. "I saw her making her own dresses and costumes from her scribbles sketched with a bold stroke.", Paul recalls.

Just in time before embarking on a conventional career in a bank, he discovered his vocation for pottery and enameling. Towards the middle of the 1980s, Paul Beckrich began to focus on modelling figures, which culminated in the presentation of one of his plaster sculptures at the Salon des Indépendants at the Grand Palais in Paris as early as 1989.
