" Love Dreams "

"Love Dreams" is the union of different universes and different generations of artists linked by the same process in their art: traits, lines and repeated forms to convey emotions.

Jérôme Mesnager's "The White Man", this simple silhouette, is a feat.

Its author defines it as a symbol of light, strength and peace.

But it does not represent peace, like Picasso's Dove with its olive branch in the beak, this silhouette embodies peace. An inexplicable emotion emerges from her. We feel something in itself that does not have to be analyzed, rationalized. This emotion is what makes Art one of the most beautiful forms of human expression.

The White Man returns in direct resonance with the "Character-heart" of Le Bichon.

This form is a new human figure posed on the walls of Paris, thirty years after the first White Man, which also symbolizes peace and love. There emerges the same joy, the same lightness, the same carelessness. Le Bichon as Mesnager likes to represent his characters dancing. But, while the characters of Mesnager emanate universal peace and love, those of Le Bichon were created as a banner to claim universal peace and love. They were born in reaction to the barbarism that Paris has recently experienced. The character of Le Bichon says "love us". He carries a message for the present and the future, that of Mesnager expresses this same thought in a timeless way.

Street art has the strength to address not to the world, to everyone, but to each of us, in our individuality, by posing in the path of passers-by a drawing that they will admire, love, feel , appropriate, transmit.

It is remarkable to see how much Matttieu with his representations of ostriches touch people by bringing them in their daily lives a moment where, crossing his drawing, they will smile, laugh at his humor, feel joy and transmit in turn all this by talking about it or posting the photo of the work seen. They are both close to the works of Mesnager and Le Bichon in the way they are stylized and systematized but also in the feelings they convey that are complementary: it emanates happiness from his drawings.

Imagine crossing an ostrich, a white man and a heart-character in the same street, did not you feel at the same time a feeling of happiness, peace and love?

Marion Harduin has the same desire, through her works, to feel emotions, and that "the viewers" appropriate her works.

Like the three street artists Jerome Mesnager, Le Bichon and Matttieu, she also uses the line and sometimes the repeated forms from one drawing to another to express themselves. It is for her resurgences. From his drawings, he emanates lightness through floating forms, as Mesnager and Le Bichon, joy by dancing movements. She felt, moreover, her universe close to the one of Le Bichon.

I think this is maybe the first time an artist from the School of Fine Arts in Paris and a street artist have done collaborative artworks.
The walkways are finally built between these two worlds that stand side by side and do not speak to each other.

... simple Love Dreams.

Marion HARDUIN

This white silhouette called the White Body or the white man, he reproduced it all over the world, from the walls of Paris to the wall of China. Today, the White Corps is more than thirty years old, and several books already celebrate it.

His main mediums are drawing and painting. In parallel, she experiments with other possibilities from the same theme of perceptual and sensory relations with space.
She graduated from the Beaux-Arts in Paris in 2011, and received awards early on: the Diamond (USA) Prize for Drawing in 2007 and the Jung-Hun Mécénat (Korea) Prize for Painting in 2012.
She has benefited from residencies in France and abroad and in 2013 presented works at the Cvijeta Zuzoric Art Pavilion in Belgrade, Serbia. She also exhibited in Luxembourg, in 2014 at the Cercle Münster, and in 2016 at the Château de Bourglinster under the patronage of the Ministry of Culture.
She has also participated in two museum exhibitions abroad: "Beautiful Bridge 2" at the Hangaram Museum in Seoul, South Korea, and "European Artists Exhibition" at the Museum of Art and Sculpture, Qingdao, China.
Participating regularly in international exhibitions and art fairs, she is also present in gallery where she made several exhibitions.

JEUNE ARTISTE

CONFIRMÉ

LEBICHON MATT_TIEU

Le Bichon, born in 1990 in Rennes, lives and works in Paris.Issu from the School of Applied Arts in Rennes, this teaching for an artistic profession does not leave enough room for the imagination and the freedom of creation for the young student he was.
On the walls of the capital will then appear figures made mostly with chalk. A sure, precise and loose line gives life to silhouettes, initially unformed. Everyone has to appropriate the drawing, to guess what it represents. It is in November 2015 that Le Bichon as we know it, has affixed on a wall his first character in the shape of a heart. Since then, he has never stopped invading the capital of these characters filled with love. He wishes through them, to communicate an immediate message of love, unity and sharing.
He took part in the Urban Art at the 17th arrondissement of Paris in the summer of 2017, and at the "street Montmartre" event in the Renoir gardens of the Montmartre museum. On this occasion, he made a great wall for and with the children of the home of the Sacred Heart in their refectory.
These are drawings that are real dancing and joyful compositions. When the color appears there, it always diffuses with control and parsimony to serve the drawing. The color does not invade the little heart-character, playing alone or in scenes, it highlights them.

Matt_tieu is a self-taught artist based in Paris. He has been drawing faces and animals since childhood and has been investing in the streets of Paris since 2015. His principle is to appropriate, according to his encounters, the coffee slates, the walls, the wooden panels, or the concrete of the Metro .
His approach is usually spontaneous and without special preparation, which allows him to adapt to the media he meets on his way. His faces adopt a neutral and peaceful posture, turned towards the passers-by, inviting them to take a step back on their daily life.
Her ostriches, more playful, try to brighten the lives of those they meet.
He uses chalk to make his works, which gives an ephemeral side to his creations.
