Merci Madame est une œuvre originale sur papier, un hommage vibrant à Joséphine Baker, icône de la scène musicale et militante pour les droits civiques. La composition présente un fond de couleur terre claire, évoquant la chaleur et l’humanité. Des coulées noires s'élèvent depuis le bas de l'œuvre, formant une spirale dynamique qui symbolise l'ascension et l’influence de Joséphine Baker. Au sommet de la spirale, deux drapeaux — français et américain — sont présents, représentant ses deux patries, un lien visuel entre ses racines et son engagement. Au centre, en haut de l'œuvre, se trouve l'inscription "Merci", un geste de reconnaissance simple et puissant.
Intention de l'Artiste
À travers Merci Madame, je rends hommage à Joséphine Baker, une femme qui a marqué l’histoire de la musique, mais aussi la lutte pour l’égalité des droits. La spirale noire ascendante représente son parcours exceptionnel, un chemin de résistance, de réinvention et de succès. Les drapeaux français et américain soulignent ses racines et son rôle en tant que pont entre les deux cultures. Le fond terre claire symbolise la dignité, l’humanité et l’ancrage dans des valeurs profondes. "Merci" est un acte de gratitude, une reconnaissance de son héritage inestimable et de son impact durable sur la société et la culture.

Franck Attar is a contemporary French artist. His artistic journey was profoundly influenced by a pivotal moment in 2012: the Pierre Soulages exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts in Lyon. This encounter with Soulages's work served as a revelation, igniting a spark within Franck and prompting a profound liberation of the spirit. Inspired to delve deeper into the realm of abstract art, Soulages became his spiritual Master, guiding Franck on a path of artistic exploration and self-discovery.
Despite being completely self-taught, Franck embarked on a journey of introspection and experimentation, navigating through years filled with the challenges of creating his own tools, grappling with doubts, experiencing progress, and confronting disappointments. Throughout this tumultuous process, one constant remained: his unwavering need, necessity, and desire to paint.
Franck's artistic expression finds its voice in abstract, informal painting—an approach characterized by spontaneity, intuition, and a rejection of artistic barriers. His canvases serve as a visual diary, drawing inspiration from both the past and his daily experiences, weaving together a collection of abstract poetry that reflects the essence of his life and journey.
In Franck's hands, painting becomes a non-verbal language, a means of exploring the purity and candor of human existence and striving to illuminate it with the light of artistic expression. Each canvas represents a canvas of doubts, questions, and discovery—a testament to Franck's relentless pursuit of truth and beauty through the medium of abstract art.
