French Sculptor Jean-Marc Laroche in The Museum of Sex Shows An Author’s Vision Live After
Death - In an Allegorical Manner This is The Artist Idea of Heaven
The work of French sculptor, Jean-Marc Laroche is Extraordinary! Includes two human-sized sculptures made of varnished resin and jointed with an invisible steel framework - an effect which resembles real bones. With regards to the "Lovers from the Hereafter" sculptures,
Jean-Marc said, "They themselves quite joyful and they thumb their
noses at death and present the afterlife as a roll in the hay."
The one month long installation at the Museum of Sex is sponsored by The Evolution Store in SoHo. Bill Stevens, Owner of The Evolution store said, "The Evolution Store is
always on the lookout for items that encapsulate our passion for science and
art and partnering with the Museum of Sex is a wonderful opportunity to
showcase Jean-Marc Laroche's work and our unique take on the role of natural
history in the modern world.” The work of the French sculpture it’s an Uncomfortable Powerful look at death Born in Paris in 1959, Jean-Marc Laroche start his career building Fantasy Knives free rein to his imagination in his creative work. Over the course of participation in
international trade shows, Jean-Marc Laroche met his best clients and sponsors,
some of whom still follow his work today.These knives had success not only in
Europe but also in Latin America (specially Brazil) and in United States very
much marked by the world of cinemato and Comics, he has exhibited at the
Avoriaz and Brussels Fantasy Film Festivals several times, where his work has

"kind of represent orgasm as a litle death" – Borges definition-
there’s another life after death. An onoristic life. Everybody fears death but
the author concept is “there’s a big party after…that’s a desmistified,
desdramatized view…and includes an own, very original paradise. What’s better
in life than sex? asks the sculptor smiling-“there’s a big party
death”-concludes.
On The Evolution Store
the artist carries the Fantastical World of Fritz Lang-Metropolis in the Bronze
scuptures and has created several erotic, sensual works. Jean’s sculptures are
Masterpieces putting Skeletons in sexual/erotic positions. EROS as the
mischievous God of love are sintetysed with Thanatos personification of death..
“His work is a unique
and powerful synthesis of life, death and raw power. I am in awe!” Guillermo
del Toro – Director/Producer
I highly suggest seeing
exhibition “Lovers from the Hereafter” on the the Museum of Sex in New York and
The Evolution Store. The death as a moment of eternal pleasure, an eternal big
orgy resin articulated on a steel frame invisible, were created by the
sculptor, in a provocative almost grotesque way they immortalized romantic
postures. The artist's vision "fantasy of eternal life".
The sculptures embodies sexual power. In an
allegorical manner this is the artist idea of heaven.
Laroche desire is not
on the skin. His work is a powerful synthesis of life and death
.“By showcasing the
artistry of the human skeleton we are able to think about sex from a whole new
perspective.” Sarah Forbes – Museum of Sex curator
