See L.A. and finally find the heat …

François BOUTARD — Sat, 24 May 2014 12:53:58 +0000

I‘ve always been very attracted by the City of Angels. LA and its unforgiving world. LA, symbol of the orgiastic excesses of show business and mirror illusions for starlets egocentric. Los Angeles alone concentrates these two facets. Tails : glittery version of the American dream; side face : railroads into a freeway version for a […]

We continue to address the personal journey of Cornelia, a relevant way to understand the mechanics of creation and ask her what she thinks of the place of the artist in the XXIst century society.

Inside Brain Artist – Cornelia KOMILI #1

François BOUTARD — Sat, 10 May 2014 19:11:37 +0000

Here I am, at the foot of the wall … Advancing in writing this blog, I had more desire for meeting directly the artists. Because, after all, they are the subject – their production – of this blog. Not artistic encounters centered around an exhibition, an opening or conference. No. But some real physical meetings […]

Retro Blues #2

I‘ve never paid attention before to the fascinating geometric compositions that adorn the various racing circuits. Is that professional drivers regularly driving around 200 km/h, take the time to admire these geometric compositions? I highly doubt of it! ↓ These markings, technical elements of a circuit car racing or motorcycle, an artist, Jean-Baptiste Sauvage, used these graphics […]

Retro Blues #1

Blue pursues me. In life it does not spare me, immediately attracting the sympathy and envy of my iris. So much that I was recently considering the challenge of daily dress in blue. It may be so, dear reader of this blog, that this attraction to the Blue Riviera leads me to consider contemporary artworks […]

Ryan Trecartin & Lizzie Fitch STAGE the 2.0 society

François BOUTARD — Wed, 12 Mar 2014 07:21:16 +0000

I probably would not have had any desire to write about this American duo of artists, no less about their work, if their animated installation had not provoked so many amused, inquiring, even jubilatory reactions on the part of a young public visibly smitten with a burlesque series of videos, shown in a room at […]

Bill Viola, a major mistic artist

François BOUTARD — Sun, 19 Jan 2014 11:20:10 +0000

I often thought to tell you about Bill Viola, a major American contemporary artist, known for monumental video installations. Different ways led me to him, the first in a short trip to Norwich in 2012, with the unexpected discovery of Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts . I could have seen the Norfolk & Norwich Festival, which […]

Pierre Soulages at work

A painter friend of mine told me recently that my blog would have added value by trying to show the creative process that drives an artist. Business laudable but complicated to set up! This is a question I often ask to myself. What motivates the desire to create? How is it set up? What form […]

Soon Christmas season ! The opportunity for Santa to distribute gifts for our little ones. Back home in the northern hemisphere, it will then need to breathe well … So I propose him to relax on a comfortable chair “made in Scandinavia”, well-known by its mordic compatriots! ↓ Hans Olsen, a Danish talented designer but […]
