Charles Virion, un artiste entre nature et c\u00e9ramique<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

En 1865, \u00e0 Ajaccio, naissait Charles Louis Eug\u00e8ne Virion. Rien ne laissait encore pr\u00e9sager que ce fils de Corse deviendrait l\u2019un des artistes marquants du Loing, sculpteur animalier reconnu mais aussi c\u00e9ramiste profond\u00e9ment attach\u00e9 \u00e0 la petite commune de Montigny-sur-Loing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tr\u00e8s t\u00f4t, il se tourne vers les arts. Apr\u00e8s un passage par l\u2019\u00c9cole des Beaux-Arts de Nancy, il rejoint Paris et s\u2019impr\u00e8gne de l\u2019enseignement de Charles Gauthier et de Jean-Paul Aub\u00e9. Ses d\u00e9buts parisiens sont prometteurs : ses sculptures, pr\u00e9sent\u00e9es au Salon des Artistes Fran\u00e7ais, lui valent distinctions et m\u00e9dailles. Pourtant, c\u2019est loin du tumulte de la capitale que Virion choisit d\u2019ancrer sa vie et son \u0153uvre.<\/p>\n\n\n

En 1889, il s\u2019installe \u00e0 Montigny-sur-Loing. Le village, lov\u00e9 entre la rivi\u00e8re et la for\u00eat de Fontainebleau, attire alors peintres, po\u00e8tes et artisans d\u2019art. Depuis le milieu du si\u00e8cle, on y fa\u00e7onne des fa\u00efences et des gr\u00e8s recherch\u00e9s, dans l\u2019\u00e9lan d\u2019un art d\u00e9coratif renouvel\u00e9. C\u2019est l\u00e0 que Virion trouve un terrain fertile : la manufacture de Montigny-sur-Loing, dirig\u00e9e par Bou\u00e9 et Petit, lui ouvre ses portes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dans les ateliers, le sculpteur d\u00e9couvre les infinies possibilit\u00e9s de la c\u00e9ramique. Il transpose dans le gr\u00e8s ce qui nourrit d\u00e9j\u00e0 sa sculpture : la force de l\u2019animal, la gr\u00e2ce fragile de la nature. Ses vases, souvent peupl\u00e9s de grenouilles, l\u00e9zards ou oiseaux, semblent anim\u00e9s d\u2019un souffle vital. La gla\u00e7ure accentue les reliefs, les teintes rappellent la for\u00eat et les sous-bois. Chaque pi\u00e8ce porte la double marque : celle du ma\u00eetre sculpteur et celle de la manufacture, parfois accompagn\u00e9e du fameux coq, embl\u00e8me qu\u2019il affectionne.<\/p>\n\n\n

Ces cr\u00e9ations, expos\u00e9es et vendues au tournant du si\u00e8cle, placent Montigny-sur-Loing dans le courant de l\u2019Art nouveau international. La petite fabrique devient, gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 Virion et \u00e0 d\u2019autres artistes, un foyer d\u2019innovation et de po\u00e9sie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mais Virion ne s\u2019arr\u00eate pas l\u00e0. Tandis qu\u2019il poursuit sa carri\u00e8re de sculpteur animalier \u2013 r\u00e9compens\u00e9e \u00e0 l\u2019Exposition universelle de 1900 \u2013 et qu\u2019il r\u00e9alise, apr\u00e8s la Grande Guerre, plusieurs monuments aux morts dont celui de Montigny-sur-Loing, il reste fid\u00e8le \u00e0 son village et \u00e0 sa manufacture. C\u2019est l\u00e0 qu\u2019il meurt en 1946, laissant derri\u00e8re lui des \u0153uvres pr\u00e9sentes aujourd\u2019hui dans des mus\u00e9es prestigieux, du Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay \u00e0 l\u2019Indianapolis Museum of Art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L\u2019histoire de Charles Virion est indissociable de celle de Montigny-sur-Loing. \u00c0 travers ses sculptures comme ses c\u00e9ramiques, il a donn\u00e9 forme \u00e0 une nature \u00e0 la fois r\u00e9elle et r\u00eav\u00e9e, et inscrit durablement le nom du village dans la carte des grands foyers de l\u2019art d\u00e9coratif fran\u00e7ais.<\/p>\n\n\n
