Description
Bonjour,
I have the pleasure to submit you the new works ‘s paintings .Always around of the them “Eternal Return” ‘s F.W. NIETZSCHE and my symbolist approach.
Why alleys in town or village ? When one walk or move along to roads or motorways ,we go from point to an other point. It’s all ! It’s little. Into the alleys ,one look , one lose one’s way ,one turn and return ,… etc … With pleasure or unpleasure ,with happiness or as well suffering. The world with the life of peoples from all countries ,all believes ,all superstitions ,tragedies , happinesses, arts,….etc…The colors of the live .
I have tried to translate this idea. “ If the life don’t you love, love the life..”…..
Outcomes my yearly travels in Morocco and Egypt ,I have used my villages or little towns ‘s memories.
Thirteenth painting : “ SHADES and LIGHTS of the POWER” ( secular and spiritual)
( Karnak Amon Temple –Alley in the great Hypostyle room) Louxor – Egypt)
The historic truth vary with the times and the men (power).
The background present the great Hypostyle room of Amon temple (Karnak).I have tried painting the hoax ( but usual at this historic and religious period) peculiar to the name erasing who has lost (today again) many archaeological researches .
The Egyptian Being was compound of six elements ; in particular the name ( “RN” in hieroglyphic language”). And the name loss or the ruin sentenced the human to be devoured by Ammout after the “ psychostasy” (the Hell in the last judgment in the Christian religion ) . In same time the kings erase from human memories the existence (names and tittles) of their predecessors….
For more explanations you can writing me ….
If I summarize , without “RN” neither present existence nor future (?) existence …..and today with the consumption without brake what become the memory ?
I hope having been comprehensible.
I should try working on the others elements …more later . May be…
Real format after print (art paper or canvas) : 81 x 60 cm.
Technique: Hand numeric paint and fractal elements ( Apophysis)

Really impressive with all that etail on the columns! The color scheme is beautiful with light and shadows. Congratulations to a masterpiece! Actually the hypostyle of the Karnak Amon Temple, "the most prodigious building ever erected" was just a part of the whole temple. How it might have looked like can be seen here: http://gerard.homann.free.fr/WEB_EGYPTE/kar_vues.htm 3D model at Google! http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=4dc58c34814dbc5eb99cf0fc406d4d9c&prevstart=0

Un pharaon qui en condamne tellement un autre dans ses prédecessuers, qu'il en fait effacer le cartouche sur tous les murs et colonnes, des temples peut être trop visités, et vraiment peu protégés...tels que les pillards les ont laissé, quand incapables de déplacer les blocs pour construire une maison...des milliards dépensés pour une magnifique histoire, ne faisant pas barrage à la cupidité...votre petite merveille fait oublier tout cela...et j'adore regarder cette salle si imposante !

Une image plastiquement superbe, dont on ne peut qu'apprécier la somme de travail, tant au niveau de la lumière qu'à celui des textures, sans parler de la minutieuse reconstitution !! Une image qui prend tout son sens, sa signification à la lecture du commentaire d'introduction !! On dit que "le chemin de l'enfer est pavé de bonnes intentions" ; ici, il est plutôt ensablé, mais ils y vont tout droit, vers ces flammes "apo...physiques" que l'on voit au fond du temple d'Amon !! Cette image illustre en effet parfaitement la perte du Nom, la perte d'Identité, caractéristique de l'Egypte moderne !! L'Egypte Pharaonique avait su traverser des milliers d'années car elle était en parfaite Harmonie avec le lieu même où elle s'épanouissait, avec cette "Terre Noire" aux limons fertiles apportés par le Fleuve nourrissier !! L'Egypte moderne s'est coupée du Nil, sa source de vie, errant, tel un spectre noir et paranoïaque, entre les pilliers érodés d'une Sagesse perdue...Travail magnifiquement abouti, comme d'habitude ! Bravo, Jean !!

Le contraste est fort entre les noirs personnages du temps présent et la splendeur et la magnificence des temps révolus, mais qui, eux aussi étaient très durs...un tableau très lumineux et superbement esthétique, Jean !

Colossal est le mot qui me vient à l'esprit en regardant le décor, les colonnes splendides d'une grandeur passée qui écrasent littéralement les vivants sous l'ordre antique. Mais ces humains eux-mêmes sont soumis à un ordre qui fait que les femmes se voilent et trouvent refuge derrière les vestiges du passé. Une captivante allégorie de sociétés de notre temps, et un magnifique tableau, Jean!
