Biography
Jean-Paul Ducarteron was born in Monaco in 1969 and trained at the Beaux-Arts (1987-1992) in Toulouse. Exhibitions at the Ombres Blanches bookstore (Toulouse) and at the Depardieu Gallery (Nice) as well as in other associative places ...
After a few years of teaching, he devoted himself entirely to painting and the performing arts.
His pictorial work offers an enthusiastic and anxious vision of materials crossed by an excess of life which consumes all things. From a form (a body, an eye, a face, etc.) the baroque saturation of features, spots, folds, imprints and signs emerges an ultimately misinformed material capable of apprehending the voluptuous and mortal danger fragmentation: where the details of reality are as cardinal as the whole, where the autonomy of the part disrupts the organization of the whole.
Solar and contrasting colors show that the powdery plethora of reality annihilating beings is not morbid. These informal swarms, usually negative or forgotten, become the thing that shoots out its beneficent and exuberant rays: life that exceeds life.
