Christophe m'a fourni quelques extraits d'une grande beauté et dans les clairs-obscurs à partir desquels j'ai pu créer à mon tour cette toile.
La toile est accompagnée comme souvent d'un texte en rebond :
"La lumière se disperse dans ses yeux. C’est l’heure oblique. Au mur, un calendrier dessine dans l’ombre la mort du temps.
Claudius mâche tranquillement. Il déguste la croûte du pain qui prend déjà des couleurs de fin de jour.
Quand les ans meurent, où va la lumière ?"
Jean-Paul Schmitt is a contemporary award-winning French artist. Watercolors, inks, pencils, and acrylics are used to create a preliminary study in Schmitt's artistic process. He switches to the thick oil paste on canvas, once the dynamics of color have been established.
He participated in numerous personal and group exhibitions in France and abroad and is permanently present in galleries in Lyon. His works have been awarded many times: Special prize of the Rhône County Council in 2014; Boesner prize in 2014; International Art Award of Beijing in 2016; Gold medal of the jury and grand prize of the salon de Rive de Gier in 2017; Special prize of the Jury of the Winter Show of Lyon 2018; Great Trophy of the Arts Artists of Honor of the Year 2018 from the Editions of Museums and Culture; 2019 Silver Medal of the French Association of Arts, Sciences and Letters.
Jean-Paul Schmitt was born in 1947, in France. He is a member of the Lyons Academy of Painting (ALP), the Regional Association of Arts (ARA) and the Group of Twelve.
