Mystery Art: Sculpture at the Centre Pompidou

The Transition (I made up this title)

When ArtLicker was a noob, she took a picture of this sculpture at the Centre Pompidou in Paris and forgot to write down the artist and title.

Can anyone out there tell me about this piece? I love how tender it is and I’d like to find more of this artist’s work. I’m being lazy and could probably find it online myself, but I’d like to hear from you even if you just have a guess. Maybe I’ll make this a regular post, like a fun way to benefit from the onset of my senility. Wheeeeee!

UPDATE: Matek in the comments below correctly identified this piece as “The Kiss” by Wang Du. Thanks so much!

  1. I believe it’s The Kiss by Wang Do (the artist is definitely correct, the name of the sculpture could be off).

  2. Hooray for Matek! I did a google image search for “The KIss by Wang Do” and found several Flickr photos of the sculpture. The artist’s name is Wang DU, however. Thank you so much for helping me identify this piece!

  3. i saw this sculpture when i was at the pompidou in june last year and quite liked it but im surprised to find a movie screen capture of this korean movie made in 2004 called ‘bin-jip’ of the exact same scene. now i feel rather…ripped off. http://fmn020.xnimg.cn/fmn020/pic001/20081125/18/19/large_p8bF_2154i200058.jpg
