Francois Rouan, encaustic, paintings, drawings (Book) 1988, Paperback, illustrated cover with cutouts, Like New, Texts by Denis Hollier, French / English, 44 Pages.
François Rouan is a French artist, born June 8, 1943 in Montpellier. He devotes himself to painting, photography and video. A resident at the Villa Medici from 1971 to 1973, he became friends with Balthus, director of the Villa, who appreciated his great technical qualities.
For twenty years, Rouan has been working to produce and maintain a gap between the image and the painting. How to exclude one without refusing the other? How to escape the image without losing the painting? How to detach them? an intertwining was first a tactic of resistance.
Published on the occasion of an exhibition presented by the Pierre Matisse Gallery in New York, from May 10 to June 4, 1988. The thirty-four works exhibited, including the cover, are reproduced full-page, nineteen of them in color. The cover was printed in lithography by Thorner-Sidney Press.
