CLE DE SOLEIL

Strength of materials

“Between the transparency and the obstacle, between the fluidity and the resistance of the materials, between the light and the opacity is the painter's effort, his temptation to locate the symbols in space, in the vibration that he puts around them. Pizon with as much passion as stubbornness, strives to retain, to fix beforehand his indefinable locations where the color pink conjugates while playing without opposing each other, where forces are organized and arranged according to their colored essence in relation to others. "

Artist rating dictionary

“In an atmosphere of mystery, let's savor the joy that this master of marouflages and transparencies offers us. Alain Pizon delivers us both with delicate lights, elegant and refined writing and a sensitive approach to his subjects "

Frédéric Cubas-Glaser

Art critic Exhibition Commissioner

"I HIGHLIGHT THE IMPORTANCE OF THE ARTICLE, WHICH MUST STRONGLY EXPRESS THE PAINTER'S INTERNAL FEELING ABOUT THE SUBJECT"

Reconciliation with matter

“Under the sign it looks like matter. A dense, rich, elaborate painting, panel after panel, is the material that brings languages to life. The line, the triangle, the rectangle, the circle, the signs of a universal alphabet serve to differentiate the sexes and to describe in multiple ways their imprint on the panels and their role, both psychological and mythical in our land. "

Christine PIZON

From shadow to light

“Everything begins with a judicious mixture of binders and pigments deposited on the canvas, inviting the paper to smooth itself out as if at random, revealed here and there in filigree by the play of transparencies and opacities. The paper responds to the painter who bends distortions, folds, natural stretches and ordered movements, leaving the texts with a muzzle, dotted or liberated speech and that, in an inverted declination, guesses, sweats or leads the gaze in a recreational reading or select. The words in a new medium and here intermixed throb in the ocher that the painter makes sing, because Pizon is a musician of the land whom he orchestrates with a worn brush, a palette, the fingers or the palm that caresses its waves and deep vibrations. With all this in the preamble, Pizon appropriates the space that he dedicates to the subject. As a lover of the earth, he asks for materials transformed by human hands that they divert and transpose onto the canvas: photos, drawings, cardboard boxes or metals are inscribed here and there, but never in disorder. Pizon writes his work in a refined spatial harmony, built on accepted and domesticated opportunities, where the light never faces the night without being invited to it. In this combined set, Pizon associates rust with sublimated colors, iron in the inviting theme, and the muted shine of zinc to model a "little one" that he would have chosen ... A strange or seriously inspired painter, plays with our souls with joy and humility. Beyond his highly sensitive work, we also preserve in man an intimate quality that must be revealed: generous in his art as well as in friendship. "
