Lucile Callegari - Les Anges

Bordeaux From July 3, 2019 to July 29, 2019

Presentation
When she arrived in the city of Bordeaux, Lucile Callegari was not represented by an art gallery. The meeting with Wilhelm BLAIS was made in an obvious way, they testify "This meeting was made for each of us at a very coherent moment of our professional life". The artist and the gallery owner have the same background in art history studies at the University of Bordeaux III, and it is only natural that they meet to work together and thus work in this magnificent city! In addition, the artistic line, the skills and objectives of this new Bordeaux gallery, already well established in the city, correspond to the way in which the artist wishes today to work with art professionals. To achieve her works, Lucile Callegari paints in acrylic and charcoal. Regarding the drying, it is fast and the raw side of the material posed in an energetic way gives an intensity to the portraits “My work is defined by spontaneity, the expression of the unconscious which materializes on the canvas, the dripping and throwing them to finish; All of this in one go. ". Inspired by the human being, the artist paints the female face under all its palette of emotion. Each of the women represented on his paintings is unique, so particular and singular aesthetically and in what each tells. To start the realization of a canvas, Lucile Callegari is inspired by a face that exists, a photograph, which serves only as a basis for the succinct charcoal drawing. When she feels ready to paint, the basic model is put aside because it does not matter to her to follow her likeness. The essential interest of creation is freedom, so a new face gradually takes shape and thus becomes unique. It is at the end that she discovers what the portrait reveals, she says she is “guided by her sensitivity”.
