FABIENNE VERDIER EXHIBITS paintings AT Galerie Jaeger Bucher, Paris
The exhibition ‘Painting’ will gather some forty new works by Fabienne Verdier -ink on canvas and pastels with oil- based on three themes, Line space-time, Arborescence and Glow (homage to the Flemish masters).
Known for her ten-year apprenticeship in China with well-known masters of calligraphy, recounted in “Passagère du Silence”, Fabienne Verdier has since then entered a large number of major international art collections.
Her painting is eminently personal, internal and spiritual. It is the result of an immense creative freedom and the fruit of a long preparatory asceticism. Her ancestral technique acts as both bedrock and springboard for the emergence of a succession of inspired fluxes, which now guide us toward a reflection on the metastructures of life.
Fabienne Verdier’s painting is continuous with the experiments of the American abstract artists – Tobey, Kline, Still, Pollock or De Kooning- and carries on the work of artists who have explored the line, such as Matisse, Michaux or Degottex…
Each of the canvases is imbued with a subtle balance from which emanates a constancy: the quest for the simple. Nothing is surplus to requirement. Fabienne Verdier’s great frescoes take us deep into the alchemy of painting and her multiple forms in permanent movement make us live a metaphysical experience.
Standing at the heart of the canvas, the act of painting imbues the ink with an interiority of vision suggesting the Essence of the real. The connection between the line drawn on the paper and the line on the ink sliding across the canvas is, in this respect, masterful. Through the living spontaneity of these works, Fabienne Verdier unifies tradition and modernity and allows us to experience a moment of eternity in the midst of Breath.
The Jaeger Bucher gallery has entrusted Communic’Art with the media campaign of the exhibition ‘Painting’ by Fabienne Verdier.
