Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

Dans ce pastel, il est question de solitude intérieure. La jeune femme se sent enfermée dans sa propre prison intime ( voir le maillage serré de son haut, ses yeux absents ). la partie de gauche montre sa volonté de se libérer de cette condition , de cet asservissement psychologique à travers le grillage qui libère des oiseaux. # # #
In this pastel, there is talk of inner solitude. The young woman feels locked in her own private prison (see the tight mesh of her high, her absent eyes). the left side shows its willingness to free itself from this condition, this psychological enslavement through the fence that frees birds.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Painting Pastel

Pastel is an instrument widely used in plastic arts. Taking the form of a colored plastic stick, it is composed of pigments, a filler (chalk or plaster) and a binder (gum arabic, oil, wax). We mainly distinguish fatty pastels (oil or wax), dry pastels, whether soft or hard. Invented in Europe at the end of the 15th century, this tool was very quickly used by great portrait painters of French royalty, such as Charles Le Brun, Rosalba Carriera, Jean Siméon Chardin or Maurice Quentin de La Tour, who will be considered the "Prince of pastellists", thanks to a method of fixation of which only he knew the secret.

Pastel

Drawing made with a colored stick. It consists of pigments, a charge and a binder. A distinction is made between dry pastels (soft or hard) and fatty pastels (oil or wax).

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.

Louise Malbec

France

Christelle Trillot- Clément, alias Louise MALBEC (1974, Nantes )

Louise malbec réalise des pastels qui surprennent par leur divergence thématique. Elle associe des motifs abstraits et des portraits torturés en utilisant des tonalités de gris et de bleu, des teintes métalliques et minérales, des couleurs froides qui rapprochent ses créations de la palette de Nicolas de Staël.
Diplômée de lettres modernes, elle devient enseignante de français et d’histoire-géo en lycée tout en continuant à peindre et à exposer en France (Paris, Marseille, Nantes, Lyon, Toulouse, Vittel...) et à l’étranger. Son travail a reçu de nombreuses récompenses dont le prix du jury de la biennale de Baugé (49) ,celui du festival des Arts pluriels de Plan de Cuques (13)...

En 2017, Louise Malbec aborde les grands formats et des sujets plus engagés comme ceux qu'elle traite régulièrement en cours auprès de ses élèves. Dans ses toiles, elle évoque le fanatisme religieux, la manipulation de l’homme par la machine, la crainte de l’uberisation du monde, l’enfermement psychologique, la marchandisation de l’art, le questionnement identitaire chez l'adolescent ou le suicide écologique.
Elle travaille le pastel à l’huile et le collage de manière autodidacte à partir de ses photographies et de dessins retouchés sur logiciel informatique. On rapproche son travail de l'art singulier et d'une forme d'expressionnisme froid. Louise Malbec aime s’interroger sur notre monde en mutation qui déshumanise l’individu, le chosifie, notamment à travers les pratiques agressives de management dans le travail ou la place grandissante des outils numériques dans notre vie.
Pour ses réalisations, elle utilise essentiellement des tonalités de gris et de bleu, des teintes métalliques et minérales, des couleurs froides qui se marient bien aux sujets traités, plutôt graves.

Est-ce une réflexion objective sur les méfaits de la mondialisation ou le dégoût profond d'un capitalisme métastasé ? En tout cas, il lui semble évident qu'il ne faut pas se laisser gagner par la résignation et abandonner sans se révolter .
