Alain Grisel

Lesconil, France
Artist (Painting)
Born 1944

Portrait of the artist.


Fred Josett, painter, says of Alain Grisel:


Alain knew early on that he would be a painter and that he would put all his strength into becoming one.

''You're not serious when you're seventeen years old'' said the poet and yet it was at this age of happy unreason that he resolutely set foot on the ad hoc Island: a painter had dropped anchor.

He engaged in a dialogue with the world in a voice that he had missed until then and that he still continues to practice some fifty-six years later.

His figurative painting moves from landscapes to characters. Others are often witnesses to our little stories, more or less voluntary guardians who magnify them. Alain is one of those witnesses who tucks these strangers into bed with his web, these welcome guests who gradually become more familiar to us.

A painting with accents of benevolence like a bulwark against ambient cynicism. A solitary act, an apnea where he will draw his color and come back to us in the light always well accompanied. One could believe that he learned his job as a painter to satisfy the child he remained.
