Caesar's graphic work is little known, rarely shown, yet it must be considered in its singularity because it constitutes a full part of his work. Installed in a corner of a studio set up for him at the back of Jean Ferrero's gallery or on a simple kitchen table, César constantly drew, mixing techniques and tools, playing with the boundaries between graphic arts and sculpture. Lighter to implement and proceeding from the same creative springs, his graphic work often took over from metallurgical work.

With Caesar, whether he sculpts or draws, the work springs from the chance of finding and manipulation: "In my house, it's always like this, the idea suddenly springs from the discovery of a material, a process [...] I experience the possibilities of resources, I correct one form, I take another."

In 1983, César created a plaster Centaur for the tribute exhibition that the Picasso Museum in Antibes organized to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Picasso's death. The Spanish sculptor was a prominent figure for Caesar who shares with him his sense of DIY, a consummate art of metamorphosis, constantly reinventing himself, with what we have on hand: from plaster to cast iron, from iron to bronze, from sheet metal to anything. With his Centaur, Caesar shows his fascination with the Catalan master, identifying himself with him by a self-portrait.
