Jean-Jacques Ceccarelli

Jean-Jacques Ceccarelli was born in Marseilles in 1948. He lives and works in Marseilles... He studied metalwork and also worked as a docker.

He is an unclassifiable self-taught artist. For Jean-Jacques Ceccarelli , drawing is not an end in itself, but rather a set of suggestions, encounters and coincidences that make his works accidents instead of results.

The flow of details in his works may discourage the spectator, but they are not pointlessly complicated. We are called upon to have a double interpretation: the painting as a whole and the painting in its details. In fact, we can look at the details as a thousand entrances that give access to the whole.
