Biography
Excerpt from his personal website: "I am part of a generation whose beacons were Picasso, Matisse, Kandinsky, Klee and Fernand Léger, of whom I was a pupil. A generation above all concerned with form, writing, the sign and little by the subject. The role of witness of his time seemed to us to be reserved for photography.
And for this reason, I gradually oriented, from 1956 towards '' non-figuration '' with more or less close concerns of the group '' Cobra '', and this until 1969. However, the absence of reference to reality sometimes leading to aestheticism, I had the feeling of often redoing the same painting and wanting something else.
I chose hyperrealism for quite a long time (a period marked, however, by a few crises of abstraction) and since 2004, I felt the need to orient myself towards another form of expression, where the unconscious, the gesture and color freeing themselves from objective representation, my approach becomes t more playful and almost daily surprises."
