L’art Actuel s’invite dans le village de Grisy les Plâtres, Val d'Oise.
Ce samedi 8 septembre, 12 ieme journée de l’installation land art Grisy-Code , journée plaisante (malgré la chaleur épuisante) d'étalage de bandes de couleurs... 19 bénévoles participent : la plus cruciale des interventions étant de décrocher de grosses mottes de terre pour bien caler les bandes, en vue d'une éventuelle tempête de vents en début de semaine.
Le principe initial de Pierre Marcel est de conjuguer en style « Grisy-code » une première intervention land art 2011 plus figurative pour illustration historique. Sont donc recyclés plusieurs milliers de mètres de bandes 20 à 120 cm de large de tissus de couleur.
Cette action d'art contemporain permet de mettre en valeur auprès du public notre monde agricole vexinois (au carrefour de 3 régions ; Picardie, Haute-Normandie, Ile de France)
Sur invitation de l’association « Grisy-Code » j’ai l’immense plaisir d’associer en ce projet artistique agricole d’envergure des amis partenaires fondamentaux
Francis me réalise un travail extraordinaire (et pour lui un plaisir technique, car il adore créer et contrôler des prestations de qualité) de préparations métalliques pour mes tubes de peinture géants dans les champs de Grisy-les-Plâtres
Très intéressant et efficace cette technique de prises de vues aériennes.

Pierre Marcel SCHMIDT, also known as Applestrophe, is an international painter specializing in ecological art. Born 35 years ago, he became an “ambassador of France” through his works focused on love and apples. His artistic journey took him to Miami Beach, Florida, where he left his mark in the heart of the historic Art-Deco district.
During his career, Pierre Marcel Schmidt has maintained a close link with three French regions, where he creates daily: Île de France, Normandy and Picardy. In addition, he devoted each summer to the study of the South of France, in particular Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer.
His professional career is rich in notable achievements. In the 1970s and 1980s, he began his career as a screen printer, then became a decorator, running a business with up to ten employees. His work consisted of beautifying Parisian restaurants and cinemas while promoting environmental protection.
From 1986 to 2005, Pierre Marcel Schmidt became an international decorator under the name Pierre Marcel, working in the United States, in Miami, Florida, with the company "Subject to Change". He contributed to the preservation and renovation of the Art-Deco area of Miami Beach, decorating stores, private and public spaces, as well as commissioned municipal murals. For seven years, from 1991 to 1998, he traveled to Moscow as an official American expert to create the scenery for the first tourist attractions and the new Moscow City Hall, while helping to train Russian students in trades of official decorators.
In 2001, Pierre Marcel Schmidt returned to France, this time as an ecological painter. He lives in Guerny, in Eure, where he works publicly to promote the Vexin Français Regional Natural Park. Since 2003, he has created daily artistic works in public art at the Salle du Prieuré in Saint-Clair-sur-Epte, a village linked to the history of the creation of Normandy during the peace treaty of 911 with the Vikings.
From 2013 to 2016, he also directed a workshop-gallery located in La Roche Guyon. Throughout his career, Pierre Marcel Schmidt, aka Applestrophe, has used art as a means of raising awareness of ecology and promoting French history and culture.
