Kong représente un gorille aux caractéristiques humaines, un animal anthropomorphe, que Richard Orlinski transforme depuis qu’il l’a créé. Brandissant un baril de pétrole, martelant le torse de ses poings, vêtu comme un boxeur ou un joueur de football, doté des attributs des Super héros ou dans la position du Penseur de Rodin…
Poursuivant la série, Richard Orlinski métamorphose encore son Kong légendaire. Cette fois, il augmente son animalité. Même gueule, même corps musclé facetté, mais à la position debout, le sculpteur a substitué une attitude d’animal sauvage. Kong prend appui sur la plante de ses pieds et sur une main repliée. Prêt à bondir, Kong redresse la tête et nous interpelle pour mieux nous éblouir.
Pour la première fois, l’artiste adopte une finition mate pour son rouge emblématique.

The end product was dazzling works of art with vibrant colors and a multi-faceted style that would be viewed all around the world.
Richard Orlinski was born in 1966, in Paris. He has exhibited his sculptures at galleries and venues including Art Basel, FIAC, Art Élysées, and the Palace of Versailles, as well as in outdoor spaces. Orlinski was made an Officer for the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Minister of Culture Roselyne Bachelot-Narquin in 2021.
