  Ballereau, Alain
  Born 1956, in Paris.
  Alain Ballereau began his training with a qualification in fine arts before enrolling at the national college of applied arts and crafts in Paris. His paintings combine acrylic and pastel on canvas or paper. The pictorial space is the scene for formal and chromatic agitation, with impulses entering and departing, reminiscent of a wild script. Sections of blue, dark and brownish greens, executed with rapid brushstrokes, are juxtaposed to create an unstable, moving background. Lines, a few features and a glued scrap of paper feverishly outline contours reflecting the image of an architectural view which is open and free. In ...

  Bonnefont, Loïc
  Born 17 January 1953, in St-Cloud.
  Loïc Bonnefont is the grandson of the painter Léon Leray. In his paintings, he skilfully employs a technique similar to Hyperrealism. Not only does he communicate to the viewer the roughness of the landscape in his paintings of the Hérault region, but he also ironically subverts the conventional meaning of the images he represents, to bring the unusual to life....
