Colin Cyvoct

Regarding the work of the sculptor Jean Isnard, Colin Cyvoct talks about what really matters to him: "Do not dissolve tensions, love them: questions, expectations, places where the full of life gather, matter of consciousness. To understand nothing, to enter into the presence. What appears slips elsewhere. The real has no limits. The light swings the eye, captures the shape. The gaze catches the instant the exterior resonates. "

Painter, visual artist, author, he never saw his activity as an artist as a solitary practice. In 1968 he took part in the Beaux – Arts poster workshop in Paris, in 1975 and 1976 in the Collectif des Plasticiens Anti – Fascistes created within the Salon de la Jeune Peinture, with among others Julio Le Parc, Maurice Matieu and Gérard Fromanger.

1st artist in residence in a geriatric hospital, he exhibits regularly both in France and abroad (in total about seventy exhibitions, half of which are collective).

He was the initiator of the exhibitions "Toiles en liberté" under the Parisian skytrain in 2000, and "Shadows, lights and Primo Levi" in 2007 at the headquarters of RFF (Réseau Ferré de France) in Paris. He is also a freelance writer for "L'oeil" magazine.
