ABOUT THE ARTISTS ...
THE HUNGARIAN
ATILA had a solo exhibition in 1984 in the Forum des Halles library of Angers, and a second, more important, in 2006, the Grand Theatre d'Angers. It was present in the Hungarian Artists Collective Exhibition, Treasures of the twentieth century collections Angevin, large format and Europe artists. Many important works in private collections Angevin.
Atila (Atila Biro) was born February 20, 1931 in Budapest. He must leave his native Hungary to the Saar in 1944. He has thirteen years between the French Lycée in Saarbrücken. From 1951 to 1952, he began studying architecture at the workshop Pingusson from Ecole Nationale Superieure de Paris. He continues between 1952 and 1958 in Stuttgart, where he studied the architect Günter Behnisch, philosopher Max Bense and the painter Willi Baumeister. A graduate of Architecture at the University of Stuttgart, in the Bauhaus tradition, Atila can focus on his true passion: painting. He moved in 1959 to Paris. Naturalized French in 1970, he continued his work in Paris as an architect at halftime until late 1973, and then devote himself to painting until his death early March 22, 1987, at age fifty-six years. Initially seduced by the lyrical abstraction of a Sam Francis or Jenkins, Atila finds its own path through the New Figuration. He brings technical worked through a very personal, entirely dominated by poetry. His monumental decorations, his paintings and watercolors show strange characters, nightmare figures, angels, watchers, watchmen, astronauts, all magnified by an outer space burning fires of the sun prism. These apparitions question us as we are invited to question them in our turn.
Vera MOLNAR inspired the Hungarian Artists exhibition at the Hotel Bessonneau in 2002. She had been honored at the Museum of Cholet in 1995, which presented the exhibition The Spirit at work. Edition of his book artist TANGO 74, with the assistance of the Ministry of Culture in 1996. Presentation and debate around this book, with the participation by Morellet and Michel toys, museum of Cholet, then Abbey Bouchemaine. This artist collective exhibitions in Treasures of the twentieth century collections Angevin, Europe artists, contemporary art prints. A major retrospective, titled in pencil, pen, brush, computer, it was consecrated in 2000 at the Centre d'Art Contemporain, Bouvet Ladubay Saumur. She is currently one of the artists presented in Paris as part of the exhibition at the Pompidou They.
Vera Molnar was born January 5, 1924 in Budapest. She gets in his hometown and in the family summer residence on the banks of Lake Balaton education bourgeois careful, we perceive today in his impeccable French. She took courses in painting and art history at Budapest from 1942 to 1947. After a short stay in Rome, she moved to Paris with François Molnar, who became her husband the following year. Gradual discovery of modern art. She feels his arrival a deep distaste for the dominant aesthetic of the School of Paris, guilty in his eyes, not to provide to the citizens than pretty pictures for their top chimneys. She participated in 1960 in founding the movement Research Group Visual Art (GRAV), then in 1967 at the Art and Computer Science at the Institute of Aesthetics and Art Sciences in Paris. Dating from 1968 developed its first works in collusion with computers, which it arrives in a version "prehistoric" through contacts of her husband, then a researcher in applied psychology. Since it will never abandon this demanding track and seemingly barren. Today, its rigor is seen by many acclaimed awards and a growing number of exhibitions, including in Paris and Germany. His aesthetic is both rigorous (it is always necessary to go through "programs") and fun (nothing seems to amuse him more than his daily searches) leaves no part in any message whatsoever. As she herself says, "In my work there are no ingredients of a symbolic nature, metaphysics, mysticism. There is no message, no message, or raccoon. "
Judith NEM'S (Judith Nemes) was with her husband Andras, the starting point of the exhibition Artists Hungarian ... in 2002, thanks to the loan of their collection personal core of the collision. Also present in 2006 in Europe artists exhibition presented by the House of PACA and Europe, Hotel des Penitents of Angers.
Born in Budapest in 1948, Judith NEM'S (Judith Nemes) moved to Paris in 1992. It involves them in various activities related to art edition (Paris Hungarians Envelope Review, Revue d'art 90 °, with Joseph Kadar), the mail art or the book-object. Part of an artistic rather lyrical and spontaneous, it turns out, after various tests (series Spoons, series of shoe shapes, work on the female figure), to an art more programmed, based on the principle of repetition of modules subject to variations patiently calculated. The use of pure colors, research the effects of layering and transparency, a very musical sense of space and rhythm, a taste for asymmetric cuts a little closer to the research group MADI, which a discreet personal lyricism the however different. "What determines the extent of individual creative freedom? I am often asked the question. What makes an artistic entity recognizable ? How can this be achieved by observing the strict rules of geometry? Because this is an area that contains an endless variety of possibilities and, for that reason that we could lose. This is where a system established by the artist, who determines his or her own rules, help. It does not work without the system. "(2006)
François-Xavier ALEXANDRE Enrolled in the free movement of Support-Surface. Geometry in Recurrent declined form of hourglass. Subtle palette in shades of gray. Rigor and sensitivity in writing. Present on the walls Angevin past few years. Participated in the exhibition of European artists, the different sessions of PACA / Heritage and the latest manifestation of Art and Angevin summer chapels, 2008.
Francis Xavier Alexander was born June 24, 1972 in Angers. After rubbing the worlds of education, journalism and cultural activities, now fully dedicated to the creation. His "Objects Plastics," as he calls them, follow a carefully thought about theoretical on its own pictorial space. The thrust of its rectangular base, diagonals and medians of the four sides are the real masters of the game and actually lead all its interventions. Gray and white, very slightly thickened or nuanced, feed the paintings. Writing, which keeps the spontaneity of gesture helps to humanize an original space, tough and minimal, a little "conceptual", if one wishes, but also away from the lyricism that a surveyor from the rule. You feel comfortable with these works, we may decline as musical variations, open to infinity.
Manon BARA The youngest. Graduated from Fine Arts School of Visual Arts at the Abbey of La Cambre in Brussels. Figuration spontaneous redesigned with a strong personal involvement with reference to the current German Expressionist. BARA
Manon was born in Los Angeles January 28, 1985. While completing his course of study at the Beaux-Arts d'Angers, she began her successful career as a young artist. She has always drawn: daily, she filled her notebooks and diaries schoolgirl tile designs, including telling short stories, evoked situations that he spoke or portraying figures more or less imaginary. A sort of diary, a little public anyway, as his closest friends could catch a glimpse or, more rarely, flip. A recent experience in a printing workshop in Brussels, opened the doors to a universe of new constraints. He was released several series of plates that show a world still marked by suffering, but perhaps more welcoming to the enjoyments of life. These crowns, these landscapes of mountains, these self-portraits are still mourning, still with a youthful sentimentality, but this loss (from childhood?) Seems subverted by an alacrity shapes and colors harbinger of more peaceful times, even if the tragedy of life is very strongly assumed.
Xavier Benony The photographer, who is All Saints Street shop for many years, is well known Angevins. One of his photos appeared in the Loire the first pages of the catalog of the exhibition Artists of Veszprém Angevin the country in June 2003.
Born in Niort, June 23, 1958, Xavier Bénony lives and works in Los Angeles for nearly thirty years. Its business is divided between the teaching of photography in a professional school of Le Mans and his work as a photographer in his studio Street Saints. Portraits, landscapes and "landscapes reconstructed" form the three main areas of production. Series of reports, which are sensitive to constant movement of the modern city, the twinkling lights advertising, architectural rhythms, adding to its repertoire. Xavier Bénony does not take himself to a painter or a director, but he likes to push through on the margins of freedom and interpretation of objective and circulation. Panoramic views, natural or reworked to allow the eye a free trip very comfortable. His "landscapes reconstructed" use collage, creating a certain optical distortion and mirror effects to infinity. With purely photographic means yet, they undergo a metamorphosis to familiar places, which suddenly take on an air of freshness and novelty invigorating. No better ambassador of the life and landscape Angevin, even if his shots are not limited to Anjou.
Charles Henry FERTIN is one of the youngest artists in the selection of Anjou. It has always been motivated by the artistic way, he continued at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris as a student and then for two years as a foreman in a department "Metal .
Born January 22, 1982 in Angers, where he completed his early studies, it is already applied to go for more artistic for his sculptures and installations. Young student he had obtained a first prize in a competition organized by PACA, through an exhibition Dorny. His work, rigorous and already completed, had seduced a demanding public during the exhibition "PACA / Heritage" presented at the Tuffière Castle in September 2007. He currently hosts a workshop on "Metal" in the Ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Part it presents, "Hang onto your seat," is presented for the first suspended wall. "She recalls," he writes, a movement still an imbalance stable or unstable equilibrium .... " Free viewers to project their own moods, his personal metaphysics in the relief deliberately minimal.
GESLIN The Nini Nini Geslin artistic personality has become familiar to the public Angevin. We enjoyed the lightness of its interventions at numerous community events and personal, including the chapel of Notre-Dame de Villeneuve, under the proposed route by Art and Chapels in 2008.
Born in Versailles, 25 September 1960, she practiced with equal success drawing "flat" and the drawing in space, ideally for her to combine the two in scenography and light carefully integrated with areas entrusted to it. "I use mostly to the wire. This material, because of his docility and his memory, allows great freedom. He develops a formal grammar, the framework of the figures. He draws in space. I also like to fill, give flesh using different fibers taken from here and there. In parallel, I continue a search pattern, often on large paper. Whether wire, linen or charcoal, it is for me breadcrumb '(2008).
NAM (Michel Airaudi): In addition to an abstract painting very strong resonances paste personal, he works alongside video projections as subtle as a violent background also very prominent. One of the "revelations" Angevin the last few years. Present exhibitions PACA / Heritage II, the castle of Tuffière, and PACA / Heritage III, Orbière. Recent exhibitions the Tour Saint-Aubin d'Angers and the Abbey Bouchemaine.
NAM (Airaud Michel) was born in Cholet, where he still lives and works, January 25, 1960. His real entry into the art world dates back to 2000. The universe of NAM, very autobiographical in its dynamic deep part however in a strong aspiration to universality. NAM is not it stands for MAN? His "humanism" leads logically to prefer very simple shapes (the line segment, circle, square) and ocher pigments limited to the Earth and the black matte or shiny, raised only by a few interventions more colorful. Of erasures in the depth of the paint layers reinforce the impression of working on material in the making. These choices are immediately apparent in its clashes. They are made even more significant when there may add, as he often does in two years, a very fantastical digital projection, although the allusion it dominates all the writing! It is always punctuated by a soundtrack of his accomplice Olive, who can become violent to wake the dead, when necessary. Difficult to remain indifferent!
Sandrine PINCEMAILLE : We find pleasure in the various cymas Angevin. Presents the latest edition of PACA / Heritage, at the Abbey of Saint-Florent-le-Vieil, as it was in Orbière the year before. She is one of the artists featured in the 2009 route of Art and chapels (chapel of the castle Pimpéan). Lissière that takes advantage of modern materials, it shows as easily on wall surfaces in its facility suspended in space.
Sandrine Pincemaille was born December 20, 1966, in Chatou. Former student of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts d'Angers, it has been fixed in Anjou. Its materials are usually taken in the vast repertoire of practical life or current business, those which a fiber artist should not concern a priori. Not to offend or to cause, but probably rather to bring out the simplicity possible poetry of everyday life. These diversions surprise us and give rise to emotion where we do not expect it. That's Arte Povera, if one wishes, but without a label or ostentation. A rare phenomenon, based on purity and simplicity. His starring hot glue, struts her white plastic bags us back, without having really to think in a world of childish magic. A feat!
Pascal Proust: First known by its various sketchbooks on landscapes and Angevin heritage and its talented designer (he made the design of the exhibition large format, Hotel Bessonneau in April 2005). It is also now recognized as a visual geometric spaces to create clever original carvings by generating shadows and lights cleverly distributed: Series of weather vanes, screens, stained glass windows (for Arts and Chapels 2007). Present on the last three editions of PACA / Heritage.
Pascal Proust was born in Champigny-Souzay April 7, 1960. He first gained fame in the fields of architecture, heritage of the statement (his Notebooks of gouaches from the banks of the Loire pulled out!) And as set designer. His break into the world of pure art was smooth, by skilful cuts of paper: series of "weather vanes" and the "Screens" and "Stained Glass". His paintings and cardboard signs in recent years further asserts a personality-oriented poetics of space and terrain. With the series "Gaza", presented at the Hotel Bessonneau the artist engages with happiness on the road yet perilous face-to-face with the news. This new dimension, temporal and dramatic, is perfectly in writing by Pascal Proust, by providing a new dimension, without losing its lightness.
Atila (Atila Biro) was born February 20, 1931 in Budapest. He must leave his native Hungary to the Saar in 1944. He has thirteen years between the French Lycée in Saarbrücken. From 1951 to 1952, he began studying architecture at the workshop Pingusson from Ecole Nationale Superieure de Paris.

He first gained fame in the fields of architecture, heritage of the statement (his Notebooks of gouaches from the banks of the Loire pulled out!) And as set designer. His break into the world of pure art was smooth, by skilful cuts of paper: series of "weather vanes" and the "Screens" and "Stained Glass". His paintings and cardboard signs in recent years further asserts a personality-oriented poetics of space and terrain. With the series "Gaza", presented at the Hotel Bessonneau the artist engages with happiness on the road yet perilous face-to-face with the news. This new dimension, temporal and dramatic, is perfectly in writing by Pascal Proust, by providing a new dimension, without losing its lightness.
