A la suite du succès de l’exposition SERGE GAINSBOURG ET CAETERA à la Galerie One Toutou avec WE NEED ART au Marché Dauphine à Saint-Ouen, les artistes de L’atelier. Espace de création ont choisi de présenter une trentaine d’œuvres sur l’univers de cet artiste français incontournable du siècle passé. Leurs illustrations, customs et peintures sont déjà exposées à Paris et ont suscité l’engouement du public.
Pourquoi choisir de créer cet événement ?
Yarps, à l’origine de l’exposition parisienne, est un ami de Tarek et Mat Elbé avec qui il a réalisé de nombreuses performances au 5 rue de Verneuil, lieu emblématique pour les fans du chanteur. Ses œuvres seront visibles dans cette exposition tout comme des pochoirs de Mat Elbé et des collaborations entre ces trois comparses… Olivier Nestelhut, Vincent Pompetti et Audrey Rouvin, présents aussi au Marché Dauphine, ont joué le jeu une fois de plus et présenteront de nouvelles œuvres. La musique sera au centre de cette exposition d’autant plus qu’Olivier dans une autre vie a joué des morceaux de Gainsbourg dans des cabarets et autres boîtes de jazz… La boucle sera donc bouclée !
Les artistes de la galerie ont choisi d’inviter d’autres créateurs pour donner à cet événement une touche colorée, vivante et musicale…

A Paris, 30 artistes ont fêté les 30 ans de Gainsbourg tandis qu’à Rennes, ce seront 30 œuvres qui marqueront cette date anniversaire.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Watercolor

Watercolor is a painting in which gum arabic binds transparent pigments revealing the support of the painting. The gouache, of identical composition, is opaque. A watercolor is a water-based painting on paper. We rarely speak of a painting for a work painted in watercolor. Watercolor paintings are considered to be a unique way to creatively represent dreams, illusions, emotions and luminous feelings using water soluble pigments. However, painting with watercolors can be difficult. It's a difficult medium to master, in large part because it can be ruthless and unpredictable. Mistakes are difficult to correct and its fluid nature makes it difficult to control. Yet it is these very qualities that give the medium its undeniable charm.

Ink

A strongly tinted liquid or paste that is used to mark paper or other printable materials. The design is done manually with a slab, feather, brush, or straightener.

Figurative

Figurative and colorful painting having taken the liberty of including all forms of art without border of cultural genre and geographic origin, without hierarchy of values between high and subculture.

Technic Drawing

Drawing is a technique of visual representation on a flat support. The term "drawing" designates both the action of drawing, the resulting graphic work, and the shape of any object. It is also a representation on a surface of the shape (and possibly the light and shadow values) of an object or figure, rather than their color. There are a large number of drawing techniques: “Linear drawing” represents objects by their outlines, edges and some characteristic lines; beyond this limit, the drawing develops by representing the volume by shadows, often by means of hatching, incorporates colors, and joins, without clear transition, the painting.

Karine Nicolleau

France

Karine Nicolleau is a multidisciplinary artist who discovered photography in the 80s. A very empathetic relationship with living things guides her in her research – humans, animals, primitive nature.

From fashion photography, which she learned in Paris and then developed freelance for twenty years for a few big names, Karine indisputably retains a fascination with beauty. In June 2012 she created the Yadlavie association for “photography that changes the way we look at illness, disability, aging and values all our differences”.

In March 2020, first confinement, Karine turned to painting. This medium, which she discovers, allows her to apprehend the world through an even different perspective and leads her to seek special and original treatments for her photographs and their prints.

Karine Nicolleau was born in 1968 in Rennes, her work is present in many private collections.
