Philippe Cognée, Hommage à Federico Garcia Lorca
France  • 1957

Presentation

Philippe Cognée (born in 1957 in Nantes) is a French contemporary artist known for his distinctive encaustic painting technique. He studied at the École des Beaux-Arts de Nantes and was awarded the prestigious Prix de Rome in 1991. Today, he lives and works in Nantes while also teaching at the Écoles des Beaux-Arts in Angers and Paris. Emerging in the early 1980s, he became a key figure in the return to painting movement, setting himself apart with a unique artistic process.

Recently, Philippe Cognée has continued to gain recognition with major exhibitions in France and internationally. His works have been showcased in renowned institutions such as FRAC Auvergne (2015) and Daniel Templon Gallery in Belgium (2015). More recently, his retrospective at the Fondation Clément in Martinique (2023) reaffirmed his place in contemporary art. His paintings, which blend abstraction and realism, remain highly sought after by collectors and museums alike. As he continues to push the boundaries of painting, his new works explore the digital age's impact on perception, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern technological influences.

Cognée’s work begins with photographs or film footage, which he deconstructs and reassembles before projecting onto canvas. He then paints with encaustic, using beeswax and pigments, before covering the surface with a plastic film and melting the wax with an iron. This process distorts the imagery, creating an effect of blurring and fluidity, adding depth and a dreamlike quality to his compositions. His signature technique reinforces the ephemeral nature of his subjects, offering a poetic reflection on time, memory, and perception. While his earlier work focused on everyday life and seemingly banal objects, his later works have explored themes of urbanization, consumerism, and surveillance. Since the early 2000s, Cognée has investigated the impact of mass consumption through series depicting supermarket aisles, a striking commentary on contemporary consumer culture. Since 2006, he has also used images from Google Street View as inspiration, capturing overlooked urban landscapes and their architectural nuances.
