SZCZESNY – PEINTURE SUR PHOTO ET SCULPTURES D’OMBRE

Description

This catalogue documents an exhibition of paintings on photography shown at the Villa Aurélienne in Fréjus in 2007. This technique has been among Szczesny’s repertoire since an important exhibition at Fondazione Levi in Venice (Italy) in 1999. It combines, in an innovative way, two very different means of reflecting reality. The works shown here frequently take pictures the artist took in his adopted habitat of South France as a starting point.
