Description
Immerse yourself in the magical and fantastic world of the artist!

The artist's works are influenced by the mysticism of indigenous African peoples. It seems that the animals and mythical creatures (snakes, birds, lizards, chickens, lion-men) that appear in his dreams find their way onto the artist's canvas in a heavenly way.

Often superimposed, then retouched again, we need two or three looks to penetrate a little more into his universe. His imaginative works of art keep us going, amuse us, and always remain interesting due to their complexity and multi-layered character.

Eric Tournaire, Big bird
Morocco  • 1958

Presentation

Eric Tournaire was born in Casablanca (Morocco) in 1958. He lived there until 1974. Thanks to his education and a scholarship, he spent one and a half months in Burkina Faso, the Ivory Coast and Ghana in 1981. In 1999, he returned to Morocco. He painted for 10 years as Claude Morin's assistant, building his iconography with African inspiration. Today, Eric Tournaire lives in France. 

He says: Africa… Africa, the cradle of humanity, is one of my sources of inspiration most intense and the paintings of Korhogo, in northern Côte d'Ivoire. The magic of nature at large, with his powers and cosmogonies primitive touch me a lot.

In my paintings I try to refer to all these civilizations that succeeded and mixed in the crucible of the history of this continent. By overlay patterns, colors, and transparencies, I try to express a succession of images, legends, religions and myths together closely in the space of my paintings and drawings. To obtain a summary of these overlays I use different techniques with each other.
