Alexandre Pons
Alexandre Pons, painter and photographer, was born in 1973 in Saint-Tropez, a charming port city on the Mediterranean coast. Coming from a family of artists, he grew up surrounded by art, with his father Jacques Pons, a figurative painter inspired by Fauvism, and his sister Valérie Pons, who moved towards naive art. However, Alexandre followed his own artistic path, instinctively moving towards abstract painting while not completely forgetting his figurative roots.
Over the last 20 years, Alexandre has devoted himself regularly to painting, while working at the same time in the sale of paintings in the gallery of another artist in Saint-Tropez. His artistic sensitivity turns mainly to material and color. To create his works, he uses natural pigments, Indian ink, walnut hulls, superimposed oil pastels, as well as various papers of different textures and other elements which come by chance to nourish his compositions. His favorite colors are red, black, white and natural shades.
The spontaneity of gesture, instinct and chance play an essential role in his creative process. Alexandre appreciates the "accidents" that can occur on the canvas, because they add an unpredictable dimension to his art. Painting allows him to lose himself in the unknown while remaining anchored in the present moment.
Alexandre Pons draws inspiration from various artists, including Antoni Tapiès, Antoni Clavé, Thibault de Reimpré, Michèle Destarac, Manolo Millares, De Kooning, Jackson Pollock, Nicolas de Staël, André Lanskoy, Bram van Velde and Gabriel Godard. He is also very interested in African and Aboriginal arts.
Among his notable exhibitions, we can cite his participation in the group exhibition at the "Garage de Ramatuelle" in 2011, as well as a personal exhibition at the Vasserot washhouse in Saint-Tropez in 2009. His artistic career is marked by various exhibitions, auctions and collaborations with art dealers, which demonstrates his passion and commitment to art.

Biographie
Je suis un peintre autodidacte issu d’une famille d’artiste dont le père a été influencé par le fauvisme et une sœur qui s’exprime dans l’art naïf. Quant à moi je me suis dirigé instinctivement vers l’abstrait. Cela fait environ huit ans que je me suis mis sérieusement à la peinture tout en travaillant parallèlement dans la vente de tableaux dans la galerie d’un autre artiste de Saint-Tropez .
Mon travail de plasticien et ma sensibilité se tourne surtout vers la matière.
Pour les toiles "TERRE D'AFRIQUE" j’ai utilisé des pigments naturels en superposition ainsi que des papiers de textures differentes.
Actuellement j’essaie d’accentuer ce travail sur la matière.. en travaillant sur la toile avec differents enduits, du sable voir même du ciment.
Mes artistes de références sont Antoni Tapiès , Antoni Clavé, Nicolas de Staël et André Lanskoy . Et je m’intéresse beaucoup aux arts africains et aborigènes.

propos sur la peinture du moine Citrouille-amère/traité de Shitao
"En s'en prenant à la montagne,la peinture trouve son âme;
En s'en prenant à l'eau, elle trouve son mouvement;
En s'en prenant aux fôrets, elle trouve la vie;
En s'en prenant aux personnages, elle trouve l'aisance.
Réaliser l'union de l'encre et du pinceau, c'est résoudre la distinction de Yin et Yun, et entreprendre de défricher le chaos.Transmettre son oeuvre à travers les âges et fonder sa propre école,tel est l'apanage de l'intelligence."
(Les propos sur la peinture du moine Citrouille-amère/traité de Shitao)
"N'importe qui peut faire de la peinture,mais nul ne possède l'Unique Trait de Pinceau, car l'essentiel de la peinture réside dans la pensée, et il faut d'abord que la pensée étreigne l'Un pour que le coeur puisse créer et se trouver dans l'allégresse;alors dans ces conditions, la peinture pourra pénétrer l'essence des choses jusqu'à l'impondérable."
