Jean Paul Barbier-Mueller, Rêves de Collection : Sept millén - Lot 323
Jean Paul Barbier-Mueller, Rêves de Collection : Sept millénaires de sculptures inédites - Europe, Asie, Afrique, Somogy Éditions d'Art / Musée Barbier-Mueller, Paris, 2003 Provenance: Collection of painter François Bouillon. François Bouillon taught at the École nationale supérieure d'art de Dijon, then at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Paris. A self-taught artist, as a child he frequented the studio of his painter grandfather, then collected African and Oceanic art objects. Through his many travels, he became interested in the primitive signs and symbols of a universal culture. Using a variety of techniques (drawing, painting, reworked photography, sculpture, installation, etc.), "primitive" elements (stone, earth, fire, feather, bone, tree branch, metal, traces) and recurring forms (spiral, point, cone, cross, inversions, etc.), he creates a body of work in which the manufacturing process plays a key role. For François Bouillon, contemporary artist and collector of primitive art, the modern gesture cannot be separated from a primitive imprint. It is accompanied by a search for origin that, beyond historical and cultural developments, brings us back to the most naked of human beings.
