Abellio sculpture at Musee de la Sculpture en Plein Air
As you will see from these photos as well, this sculpture uses different geometric shapes carved in the stone, and in the centre, resting on its pedestal there is a sphere, which is in complete contrast to the straight inside edges and the curved outside, and this particular sculpture was produced between the years of 1971 and 1973.
Lavaux stone sculpture called Abellio
Now we took this photo of the Abellio sculpture from a different angle to try and show as much of the curved shapes used as possible, and this was carved from Lavaux stone by Aglaia Liberaki, who moved to Paris in 1955, and married an art dealer called Gildo Caputo, who was director of the famous Galerie de France at the time, who then passed away in Paris in 1985.
Plaque on the Abellio sculpture
In this close up photo it shows the plaque on the base of the sculpture, which as you can tell, is called Abellio and it was produced by the Greek artist Aglae Liberaki, who was born in Athens, Greece in 1923, although this is the French spelling and her actual name was Aglaia.
