SEMPER HECTOLIM, ALCA LORIZOME, TROTI CHICKEN. With this uh..portrait, Santus once again inflicts on us something which is not a beautiful portrait (hee hee hee!) Of Freud because not resembling and in which we do not see roast chicken or ALCA LORIZOME besides. Let us recall that the ALCA LORIZOME which has never been neither seen nor discovered, would be a kind of non-representation of something which only exists by the fact that one can only talk about it or pray to it. An absolute concept that allows the name of god of mer.rd, or even of bor.dl of mer.rd, to indulge in visual exactions on his neighbor, and to expose smears that my cousin's nephew could make of it. as much, if he could understand that art has paid off .. "Beauty or beauty is an abstract notion linked to many aspects of human existence. This concept is studied mainly by the philosophical discipline of aesthetic, but it is also addressed in part by other areas. " Source Wikipedia. Curators and other criticators are therefore right to put forward their skills acquired by studying the history of art up to the 4th year of accounting, before continuing to study accounting which is much more profitable. History of bourgeois art which, we recall, was born at the same time as the department stores, which at least have the courage to recognize that they follow fashion and sell anything to earn money. Just like the artists who don't sell but do whatever they want to try to sell. Let us recall the history of art learned by the Atords priests, made up of references acquired during vernissages and auctions which, when it rains, replaces the whipped cream races or the announcements of the cac 40. We can therefore logically affirm that the history of art follows the fashion of hats, the cac 40 and is its corollary. To come back to this portrait, it is neither a beautiful hat, nor a history of art because it did not enter the room 40! As for this troti chicken, is it a Trotskyite chicken? Is this an allegory or a social criticism? Is it a representation of Marx with a hat? Does the subject surface melt at the bottom or at the flat bottom? Isn't Marxism Leninism evoked in this representative object, a motif emerging from the decadence of the people and the bourgeoisie? Thanks to him, can we spend the evening near the copious buffet of the Aquitaine frac without appearing to be a greedy? We will not know its author refusing to say the meaning, PFFF! Finally, let's bet that, its title means nothing and is only there for those who need to read something, instead of looking and seeing what they have in front of them. And moreover it lacks green stripes. Danielle Burne - article published in the Magazine des Arts Contents pour Rien N ° 38/1963.

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

Patrick Santus is a contemporary French artist renowned for his captivating exploration of the psychic world through the medium of expressionistic paintings. His oeuvre is enriched by the profound influences of luminaries such as Sigmund Freud, Antonin Artaud, and Paul Rebeyrolle, who have left an indelible mark on his artistic journey.

In his artistic narrative, the concept of escape assumes a central role. He delves into the fringes of emptiness, where human perception of this void becomes a profound "Miserable Miracle." It is in this realm that individuals, besieged by the haunting specter of mortality, often shroud themselves in the semblance of the material world, obscuring their gaze in a desperate attempt to evade the Gorgons and Medusas of existential dread. Patrick's work boldly embraces the intersections of art, medicine, and neo-religious thought, offering fresh perspectives on how these realms can be harnessed as tools for transcending our deepest fears.

Yet, paradoxically, it is within this void that the artist seeks to facilitate a transformative journey towards a deeper understanding of reality. He aspires to achieve this through an intentional immersion in the enigmatic process of painting without foreknowledge or visual clarity. It is within this creative act, where the artist paints without knowing or seeing, that Patrick Santus hopes to transcend the limitations of self and embark on a profound exploration of the human psyche.

Here, he endeavors to evoke a sense of "a true man without a situation," one who traverses the boundaries of sensory perception without restraint. Through his evocative paintings and drawings, Patrick strives to capture the essence of this ethereal journey, inviting viewers to contemplate the uncharted depths of human consciousness. His art serves as a conduit for delving into the very essence of existence, allowing us to peer beyond the confines of our known reality and into the mystique of the human soul.

In Patrick Santus's masterful hands, the canvas becomes a portal to the intricate tapestry of the mind, an invitation to join him on a voyage through the intricate labyrinth of our innermost thoughts and emotions. His expressionistic works invite us to confront the paradoxical nature of human existence, where the void is simultaneously a vessel of dread and a gateway to enlightenment.
