Dans une petite famille d’œuvres singulières New World, Tree of life, lLanscape, ruines,
Toujours des peintures fortes et autonomes sur des pensées, intuitions et réflexions de l’artiste sur différents aspects du monde en mouvement…

Une pierre volcanique trouvée sur l’île de Santorin a initié chez l’artiste l’inspiration de ces deux œuvres . Les pierres comme les roches ont toujours été sources de fascination pour lui.
Paradoxalement pour traiter de la question du temps l’artiste a choisi la pierre, la roche…

gestation en silence stade 1, concentration d’énergie –
stade 2 émergence et entropie. Le temps en deux états, figure poétique, mystérieuse.

Altone Mishino, a contemporary French artist, has embarked on a captivating artistic journey that seamlessly blends the worlds of calligraphy, monumental painting, and the sensuous exploration of painted signs and traces. His multifaceted career has taken him from the prestigious Beaux-Arts in Paris to renowned exhibitions across the globe, leaving an indelible mark in the realm of contemporary art.

Altone's artistic evolution began with a deep commitment to the art of calligraphy, a discipline that laid the foundation for his subsequent explorations. His quest for artistic excellence led him to the art studio for monumental painting under the mentorship of Olivier Debré at the Beaux-Arts, Paris. Under Debré's guidance, Altone honed his craft and embarked on a journey of creative self-discovery.

Since 1986, Altone Mishino has graced over thirty exhibitions, showcasing his work to audiences from Paris to Moscow and New York. Notably, he shared the stage with the iconic Pierre Soulages at the 'L'art chez soi' exhibition in 2005, marking a significant milestone in his career. His artistic contributions also reached international heights during the Year of France in China when his works were displayed within the hallowed walls of the Forbidden City, a testament to the universality of his artistic language.

Altone's art is a captivating amalgamation of gestural neo-abstraction and the venerable traditions of the Orient. He seeks to distill the essence of the 'painted gesture' to its minimalist and essential core. In his work, one can discern a dynamic dialogue between his abstract influences, including luminaries like Robert Motherwell, Frantz Kline, Sam Francis, and Pierre Soulages, and the profound traditions of Zen masters.

This juxtaposition results in a unique pictorial expression where scintillation and immobility engage in a delicate dance of equilibrium. Altone's paintings offer viewers an opportunity to contemplate the interplay between movement and stillness, creating a visual tapestry that invites introspection.

In May 2013, Altone Mishino's artworks took center stage at the prestigious Art Basel in Hong Kong during an art sale for the benefit of disadvantaged Chinese children, further cementing his global impact and commitment to humanitarian causes. His dedication to his craft continues to bear fruit, with numerous projects in the pipeline, including an upcoming exhibition with the city of Paris and further international events.
