In the 1960s he created a number of monumental sculptures for public spaces. After a monument to the Unknown Political Prisoner followed “Le Signal”, in the forecourt of the Le Havre Museum. Adam became professor of engraving and then senior professor of the sculpture workshop at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris.
