Demetre Chiparus (born Dumitru Haralamb Chiparu? on September 16, 1886 in Dorohoi, Romania and died on January 22, 1947 in Paris, France) was an Art Deco sculptor who lived and worked in Paris.
Chiparus is best known for his bronze and ivory sculptures of exotic dancers. His most remarkable works were produced between 1914 and 1933.
He is sometimes referred to as Demeter Chiparus.
In 1909, Dumitrua left his hometown near the Ukrainian border to study painting and drawing in Florence, Italy. By 1912, he was in Paris. He was admitted to the Ecole des Beaux-Arts3.
In 1914, he received the "honorable" medal for sculpture, which he exhibited at the Salon des artistes français4. After the war, he opened his own studio and exhibited regularly at the salons. He specialized in chryselephantine sculpture, a combination of ivory and bronze.
