"Azkaine" (2020) Painting by Patrick Bergès

Born in 1958, Patrick Bergès (PB as artist name) gives life to a naive and colorful world. Wide colored tint areas painted with raw acrylic paint are juxtaposing; shadows and volumes are suggested thanks to a black line in the style of the "light line"(inspired by the comic strip Belgian school).Stoned houses, closed shutters, hanging clothes floating in the wind and ... "cinquecento" Fiat allude to the Mediterranean atmosphere well-known from Corsica to Italy and from Spain to the French Riviera, even if other inspiring influences such as Brittany also contribute to his work. Patrick Berges s'inspire de la technique dite de "la ligne claire" en bande dessinée. Des aplats de couleurs brutes sont circonscrits au trait noir afin de déterminer contours et volumes.
 L'école belge a largement diffusé cette technique picturale.
