Georges Violet’s work is mainly made up of busts of celebrities from the 1940s and 1950s, such as the Countess Isabelle d’Indy-Harcourt. During the 1960s and 1970s, Violet explored a new form of expression through abstract sculpture, sometimes in aluminium cast. Trying himself easily to monu- mental work, Violet took part in the sculpture symposium organised in the park of the Faisanderie de Sénart.
