Lishma / לשמה, in Hebrew "in his name", signifies the selfless purpose of Jewish study. But "in whose name? »Ask the Sages, of the study itself or of D…, in Hebrew Ha Chem / השם / the Name, and of his injunction to study? Here, without wanting to compare, it could be in the name of Painting. These works mark the return to work of ink and watercolor on paper. Their geometry is the result of an improvisation on the structure of the “Compositions” series (superposition, following a circular symmetry, of two inverted orthogonal planes). Gestures, arcs of circles, lines and flat areas are applied day by day, without repentance or correction. They draw the reserves of white that carry them, integrate all the surprises, setbacks and hitches of the course and show the dialogue established between the lines of geometry, the free gesture and the fields of colors. Lishma: in the name of a pictorial practice, far from the expressions of the self, all of its advents, preserving the enigma of the making of the work and the silence of the painting.
