Description

This captivating artwork features an oval painting that is unique in its bold use of texture and color. The central silhouettes, two dark and mysterious human figures, rise with an almost ethereal intensity against a background dominated by blue and white hues. The contours of the work reveal a deliberate degradation, creating a peeling edge effect that adds a historical and antique dimension to the piece. The circular element at the top of the work, appearing to be an omnipresent eye or a cryptic clock, introduces a focal point that immediately captures the eye, accentuating the mystery and narrative depth of the composition. The touches of brown, applied in a rough and expressive manner, suggest a sense of movement and vitality, while the shadows and blue meters in the background create a dreamlike atmosphere, reminiscent of a dream scene or a blurred memory. The use of bursting color on the edges of the frame reinforces the theme of fragility and the passage of time, inviting the viewer to reflect introspectively on the ephemerality of captured moments and the wear and tear of memory. In short, this work is not simply a painting, but a poignant study of human existence, memory, and the inexorable passage of time. Its singularity lies in the way it pushes the viewer to see beyond immediacy, to contemplate the narrative depth that each element brings to the whole.

Anne-Marie Vesco, L'Apre mer
France  • 1957

Presentation

Born in 1957 in Grenoble (France), Anne-Marie Vesco lives and works in Montreuil, a suburb of Paris. Graduated from the Ecole Normale Supérieure (ENS) of Cachan dept of Fine and Applied arts, from 1995 to 2011, she taught at Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Appliqués et des Métiers d'Art (ENSAAMA) in Paris. She has been an independent artist since 2011.Anne-Marie Vesco's works are in several private collections (in Europe, Japan, Lebanon, China…) and in Public Contemporary Collections of Montreuil (2003 purchase) and Fontenay-sous-Bois (2009 purchase), in France. 

Anne-Marie Vesco’s series Nothing and its Opposite (Rien et son Contraire), started in 2012, is comprised of small objects picked up by chance along the way or discovered at flea markets. There is an on-going dialogue between these and her drawings and paintings.Captured under transparent resin, her collections of objects no longer reflections but the things themselves are infinitely poetic, by this work she has created a bridge between Contemporary visual and Outsider - singular art.

Her contribution to the arts (theatre, music and dance), has been considerable.
