About the Item

Created in 2008 A unique and original work of art. Engraved brass, metal and glass slab. 32 pieces made of silver engraves brass with a dark brown finish. Sharkskin support This unique and original piece of art was sculpted by Michel Kiriliuk. Born French and self-educated this sculptor, interior designer and painter describes himself as a futuristic and constructivist ultra-Baroque designer. Kiriliuk uses brass, iron and glass highlighted with brass brazes and silver brazes in order to bring a true plastic effect. The glass slab is cast on a sand bed – for a thickness from 22mm up to 70mm – before being engraved, smashed and polished. The artist also works with shagreen, scales, rock crystals. A straightforward sculpture Each of Kiriliuk’s work are unique and original. The artist employs direct techniques. He is the sole actor of the making despite the variety of techniques : arc welding, silver braze, brass braze, acid patina, engraving and polishing of thick glass slabs. Kiriliuk Versus Kasparov Garry Kimovitch Kasparov was born on the 13 of April 1963, at Bakou (Azerbaijan), world champion from 1985 to 2000. He is considered by a lot to be the best player of all times. In 1989, Kasparov easily wins against Deep thought, a super computer specialized in chess and capable of calculating 720 000 moves per second. In May 1997, he loses the match against Deep Blue. It is the first time that a world champion loses against a computer. Deep Blue wade a ton and measured 1.80 metres. Twenty people wear needed for it to work. Deep Blue was capable of calculating from 100 up to 300 billion moves per second. In November 2003, he plays in a four round game against the program X3D Fritz. A virtual chessboard is used along with stereoscopic glasses and a computer program capable of recognising speech. The result is no winner. On the 11th of March 2005, after winning at the prestigious Linares tournaments for the ninth time in his career, he announces that he wishes to retire from professional chess world. This sculpture is celebration of Garry Kasparov. The chessboard symbolises a castle. The four balanced removable parts symbolise time. In the centre a crown of engraved brass and a glass slab symbolise the chess game : a mythical game, a way of thought. This game is much appreciated in many cultures. From the point of view of game theory, it is a game of strategy, of pure mathematical deduction. A mathematical approach to strategy problems of the sort that we can find in operational and financial research. Michel Kiriliuk was born in Casablanca in 1952 from a Russian father and an Italian mother. He leaves school aged 16 to learn manual work in a workshop. he learns the craft of cabinetmakers and soon restores antic pieces. The first piece of furniture he designs is an aluminium bar bought by Amercian collectors. Since then, Michel Kiriliuk has been a designer, a sculptor and an interior designer. Kiriliuk’s work develops its difference from artistic movements, it is truly original and multifaceted. Each piece of furniture, each object, each sculpture is a unique piece. The artist produces furnitures, tripod lamp posts, wall lights as well as sculptures strictly speaking. Kiriliuk works from home, outdoors no matter the season. On a workbench the cold forming metal is shaped with the Hammer and the anvil. To produce twists the artist uses a blowtorch and a Hammer – as a flint – to smash pieces of glasses. Each element is designed in his mind and cutout but never drawn on paper. The base is made of metal and brass to be enriched following his inspirations. The first part, when making the base, is particularly fast contrasting with the ornamental part, slower and giving free rein to his imagination. This is when the goldsmith dimension starts, when he looks for diverse combination of materials and patinas to reach his perfection. Today the artist assures us he has no more troubles with the technique, however, he still seeks to be certain of the final appearance because "it’s a gift for the others". "Technique allows us to transform intentions into reality. But only the power coming out of the piece gives it an emotional value". M. Kiriliuk Michel Kiriliuk participated to numerous fairs : 1990.
