Jean-Marie Reynaud

“Jean-Marie Reynaud is as much the painter of form as of color, all in harmony, violence or gentleness. The abrupt lines of its "flat country" - Beauce -, its New York or Venetian buildings, compete with the curves embedded in female figures, flowers blooming with animism. Because it's all about the soul. It is revealed in the contrast of flamboyant and dark. Everything is fiery red, mixed with browns or blues. It is revealed in the dichotomy between precise geometric realism and closed spherical dreamlike. Yet it is an open life that is presented to us, offered to us. Discovery of a landscape both outside and inside: the country of the heart in color. »Anne Brigaud
