Mon frisson quotidien (2020) Painting by Girerd Christophe

Coming from popular and urban backgrounds, my work is the result of a self-taught artistic education, learned in the libraries of various establishments.
Certain contemporary artists, through their images and imagination, have allowed me to overcoming a number of difficulties.
Then after a "classic" apprenticeship, I returned (as a visitor!) to the museums! Not everything understood! Nevertheless, emotions were born in these places! Then the first exhibitions (as a spectator) in the gallery, a few openings by masters from Lyon (Cottavoz, Evaristo, Truphemus, Carlotti, etc.) make me want to create! But the path can be difficult!

By combining impressionist colors with new cultures urban, popularized by television, magazines or even advertising, I get noticed!. Completely self-taught, far from any artistic culture, I began with collage work combining comics and painting. From 2010 and I quickly became known thanks to colorful and confusing paintings
Today, I live in the countryside, with a creative reflection on the beauty, madness and impermanence of present time. This life has makes my art evolve on more technical and mental mastery. For greater freedom and vital sincerity.
