L ‘ automne a débuté par un temps un peu plus froid , dans les rues de Paris , et déjà , la ville lumière se vêt des couleurs que les peintres et artistes internationaux impriment dans les salons et les sites prestigieux que les connaisseurs traverseront de leur pas avertis et pressés de collectionneur : la Foire Internationale d’Art Contemporain vient d’ouvrir aujourd’hui , tout juste précédée par le » salon d’automne » des peintres et sculpteurs dont beaucoup se retrouveront au « salon des indépendants » quelques mois plus tard.
La cuvée du salon d’automne est bonne , d’un niveau, pour ce qui concerne l’art figuratif, qui n’est ni en reste, ni depuis quelques années aussi plein d’excellents peintres que sur ce dernier salon : est-ce la crise , laquelle incite les peintres figuratifs à se surpasser ? , est-ce le signe d’une sorte d’enterrement de l’art abstrait et de renouveau du flamboyant art dit figuratif, qui sait ?
Certaines fois, devant ma toile, je me dis , pour ma part, qu’il n’est pas question de faire n’importe quoi, et de peindre des croutes faciles à réaliser qui feraient le repas (certes frugale) d’amateurs , ainsi abusés : d’abord comme je ne connais pas d’acheteur de mes créations, ensuite puisque le cynisme me manque pour tenter de telles escroqueries , et parce que fondamentalement je souhaite offrir , dans la perspective lointaine d’une exposition rétrospective future, la preuve qu’il est possible de peindre finement ,vite, longtemps, soit durant toute une vie de peintre, et en cherchant à se renouveler sans cesse, nourri de toute part qu’on peut l’être par le travail des autres peintres bien sûr , et par tout support qui véhicule une image : ce en poursuivant l’élaboration d’un thème unique : ce que je nomme maintenant » l’ETHNO-SURREALISME » ou le surréalisme africain.
Voici donc rassemblées les créations récentes aux quelles je me suis attaché à donner et une forme et un style particulier. Parmi elles « le meurtre d’Abel » est celle qui m’aura causée le moins de souci technique , tant le nombre de séances qu’elle nécessita , deux au bas mots, fut ridiculement rapide.
» Abel et Caïn » , qui suit, est peut-être significatif d’une nouvelle tendance dans mon travail, d’un plus grand attachement à l’art contemporain, en ce que le tableau, non fini, à cette heure, est émaillé de tentatives de concilier abstraction et réalisme, art contemporain et moderne … etc , et que je n’en finis plus d’être surpris par les formes vers lesquelles s’acheminent mes créations, doucement, lentement, mais certainement aussi….
Voici également non finie, mais donnant une bonne idée de la gageure que représente ce tableau, la partie gauche de celui-ci :
enfin une vue d’ensemble :
Autre tableau, autre médium, à l’encre cette fois, et sur ces supports improbables que j’ai l’habitude d’employer : un panneau de bois ayant servi de fond de canapé, sur lequel une profusion de sujets s’entre mêlent pour rendre compte de » la venue d’un prophète » dont voici la partie gauche .
Toute également digne du SURREALISME mystique et onirique , la partie droite met en lumière la rencontre du chef de clan, effaré ou effrayé par ce que l’émissaire du prophète lui suggère, tandis que ce dernier , sans que ceci soit finalement explicite , est auréolé et par une aura matérialisée sous forme de lion, et comme entouré par les visions qui forment la substance même de son récit.
Dans » la vision d’Eve » , les canettes de soda, bien réelles , viennent brouiller la représentation en introduisant un objet de consommation de masse. L’opposition entre objet et image y est accentué par le geste d’Eve dont le doigt semble viser une réalité qui échappe à son monde pour énigmatiquement désigner un ailleurs que sa conscience semble réussir à sentir.
Suivant l’idée d’une sorte de métaphore de la douleur d’un père frappé par l’annonce de la mort de son fils dont le paysage aride, rouge, immense , fait de falaise et de sable, cherche à restituer la profondeur abyssale , » la mort d’Abel » est construit sur l’opposition entre la posture intime d’une Eve tentant de consoler Adam, avec l’aspect rocailleux, inhospitalier de cette immense béance dans le paysage.
Sujet et décors moderne rares dans mon travail , » Aladin rêve » , sous titré : Laoucine rêve à la grande bouffe , montre mon atelier actuel dont le fourmillement des objets qui l’occupent accentue, me semble-t-il la mélancolie du personnage d’Aladin qu’à priori on n’imagine pas perdu dans une piaule moderne , n’ayant pour le soutenir que la fièvre que lui procure son vin et la force de ses pensées.
Composé sur le modèle des scènes de plage , » la famille de Noé » tel qu’ainsi est devenu le titre définitif, n’est pas si idyllique qu’il n’y parait : Noé au premier plan d’un geste invite le spectateur , seulement son visage est fermé presque en colère , alors que sa femme semble appeler ses deux autres fils de l’autre côté et que ceux-ci sont occupés à regarder quelque chose que le tableau ne montre pas. Il n’y a pas de jeu de plage, la mer elle-même est agitée, le ciel est chargé de gros et épais nuages : l’inquiétude domine dans une représentation, par ailleurs, assez douce au regard …
Vision panoramique de ce que je vois depuis la fenêtre de mon atelier , le tableau » vue de ma fenêtre » ne cherche pas à être réaliste. Il se compose aussi en trois partie différente , mais d’un point de vue optique situées sur le même plan. La partie gauche, ici, montre le Boulogne des années trente et se continu par un assemblage de briquets collés sur le support , dont les verticales répétées des briquets semblent copier les verticales des immeubles.
La partie droite dévoile quant à elle les récents immeubles construits à Boulogne.
le tableau dans son ensemble cette fois :
Pour terminer cette rétrospective ETHNO-SURREALISTE , » Paradis du peuple primitif façon Art Brut » encadré de ces bouteilles de coca-cola.

Have you ever considered creating an e-book or guest authoring on other sites? I have a blog based upon on the same ideas you discuss and would love to have you share some stories/information. I know my subscribers would value your work. If you’re even remotely interested, feel free to send me an e-mail.
First off I want to say wonderful blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing. I have had difficulty clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out there. I do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or tips? Cheers!
Please let me know if you’re looking for a writer for your weblog. You have some really good articles and I feel I would be a good asset. If you ever want to take some of the load off, I’d absolutely love to write some content for your blog in exchange for a link back to mine. Please send me an email if interested. Regards!
I’m not sure why but this web site is loading extremely slow for me. Is anyone else having this issue or is it a issue on my end? I’ll check back later and see if the problem still exists.
Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a 25 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!
It’s a pity you don’t have a donate button! I’d certainly donate to this superb blog! I guess for now i’ll settle for bookmarking and adding your RSS feed to my Google account. I look forward to fresh updates and will talk about this website with my Facebook group. Talk soon!
Hi outstanding blog! Does running a blog similar to this require a lot of work? I have very little expertise in programming however I had been hoping to start my own blog in the near future. Anyway, if you have any suggestions or tips for new blog owners please share. I know this is off topic however I simply needed to ask. Thank you!
I’m curious to find out what blog platform you’re working with? I’m having some minor security problems with my latest site and I would like to find something more secure. Do you have any suggestions?
Hello this is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is fundamental and all. However think about if you added some great graphics or videos to give your posts more, « pop »! Your content is excellent but with pics and videos, this site could undeniably be one of the most beneficial in its niche. Wonderful blog!
Appreciating the commitment you put into your blog and detailed information you present. It’s awesome to come across a blog every once in a while that isn’t the same out of date rehashed information. Excellent read! I’ve saved your site and I’m adding your RSS feeds to my Google account.
Hey there! I realize this is somewhat off-topic but I had to ask. Does building a well-established blog such as yours require a large amount of work? I am brand new to writing a blog however I do write in my diary daily. I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my experience and views online. Please let me know if you have any kind of suggestions or tips for new aspiring bloggers. Thankyou!
Hi! Would you mind if I share your blog with my facebook group? There’s a lot of folks that I think would really enjoy your content. Please let me know. Thanks
I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the structure of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?
Great blog! Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers? I’m hoping to start my own blog soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m totally overwhelmed .. Any tips? Thanks a lot!

Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words in your article seem to be running off the screen in Chrome. I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know. The style and design look great though! Hope you get the problem fixed soon. Cheers
With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement? My site has a lot of completely unique content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my agreement. Do you know any methods to help protect against content from being stolen? I’d certainly appreciate it.
