César: Thinking Through Material
César, known for his radical compression, expansion, and imprint techniques, created some of the most original works in modern sculpture. Despite plans for a César museum opening in 1995 at Marseille's Vieux Port, French institutions have offered little support. In an interview with Catherine Millet, he discusses new flattened car projects, his fabrication processes, preparatory work, imaginary winged figures, flat sculptures, and the press release of his works.
