Description

First, randomly color the 64 squares while listening to Bach's 32 "Goldberg Variations" by Glenn Gould, recording 1981.

A slower version than the historic 1955 version, which will give you more time. The CD will be played twice in a row, just enough time to fill all 64 boxes.

You will need to change the orientation of the pencil lines by a quarter turn, from one box to the next.

For the gilding, start by making a dot with a gold colored pencil in the first box, then two in the second.

Continue to double the number of points as you move to the next square.

You will have 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 small colored dots, which is more than enough to gild the whole thing.

The points that do not fit into the overfilled boxes will be used to fill in the ones that are not.

Don't hesitate to ask for help with the small dots of the gilding...

Note: the "metallic" color changes with light

Thierry Robert, Huit au carré doré
France  • 1957

Presentation

  • Plastic artist

More than twenty years ago now, an artist friend during a walk cut a branch of forsythia attacked by galls from a hedge, telling me that it could be a good subject to paint.

So I took out my brushes and my school paints and reproduced the branch quite clumsily. But the virus took hold, pushing me to paint and progress. My scientific training and observational drawing help me a little for line, time and practice for color.

For ten years, I have accepted the idea of showing my work which revolves mainly around botany, zoology with often a suggested or even suggestive double reading.

I have a personal museum of curiosities which serves as a database for the production of my images.

I mainly use watercolor as a medium but also the repurposing of engravings, objects and photography.
