Marc Desgrandchamps
Dicecream Magazine🔳Marc Desgrandchamps (born in 1960) is a French painter.
Comprising forty large-format paintings and a wide choice of works on paper – gouaches, drawings, collages, washes, and lithographs – the exhibition retraces the artist's career from 1987 to the most recent works.
His paintings are a mix of opacity, transparency, and overlay, with their fluid, almost liquid colors and blurred outlines combining to provide their forms with surprising materiality.
There seems to be a communication breakdown between the juxtaposed figurative elements as if they were hanging suspended in the picture space. The overall effect, then, is to generate doubt and questioning, rather than certainty, in the viewer's mind.
He lives and works in Lyon.
