À propos
Renato Montanaro's work, entitled Hector, but often nicknamed the bulldog, was installed at the Nouveau Bassin in 2010. Renato Montanaro is a Mulhouse artist of Italian origin. The work weighing more than a ton is a bronze made by the Strassacker Foundry and which has been patinated.

It is a replica of an English bulldog that the artist has been using since 2004. The work commissioned by the City for the New Basin is Hector's fourth monumental version. The artist is thus reworking an image he has already used, but integrating it and thinking it in accordance with a new exhibition environment. Renato Montanaro's work finds its place in this natural environment, echoing the dogs of passers-by and walkers in the alley.
