Tribute to Basquiat

Most of the time, you start with an idea. You paint it on the canevas and then, you end up with something totally different. This is what happened with this painting. I did not know i had this in me. I love to discover myself through art.
I am preparing my very first exhibition in June 2010 hopefully. I’ll keep you posted. I’m working on “my Modern rock art on wood” concept at the moment ;o)

Bruce Forever

Here is a video specially made by the great photographer Bruce Weber for Yves St Laurent (YSL).
I was lucky enough to do the french translation of the text for the video since it was shown in Paris a couple of months ago.
It is a fascinating exercice to translate the artist words in another language. You need to believe that you get the vision and the intention of the man. That’s quite intimidating !
But for Bruce, what i love about him, it is his talent to embark the spectator into his creative universe. Only him can translate his mood, his look on things, the many elements that are or have been part of his life and make him what he is today.
Enjoy !

An inspiring artist

Today, it is not about me but about another artist Dave Lefner who uses an old technic of carving to do his paintings. This is inspiring and beautiful and part of our search of the “new ” aesthetic of our time.
Enjoy this beautiful portrait directed by Ric Serena.

A video for the U.N

Back in sept 2009, the UN launched a video contest on “youtube”: “If you had the opportunity to speak to the world leaders, what would you say?”
this video is my answer.
my message for the UN Leaders: We are no statistics, we have a name. Remember that next time you make a decision. Please, have a clue ! (compassion, love, understanding, exponent 2010).

I didn’t win but the UN staff commented my video on “youtube” by saying “BRILLANT”. So, i guess, i did something good ;o)
