Sécheret, Jean-Baptiste, Central Park, evening, 2008
“Among a thousand equally promising, equally deceptive possibilities, Jean-Baptiste Sécheret has chosen one of the most perilous, which is to paint contemporary reality, the landscape in which his life, and ours, take place […].
This work and research converge in the reckless act of standing in the street, in front of a building with two equally comminatory characteristics: a precise, detailed, intimidating material reality – the Pont Neuf mascaron, Avenue Magenta, Flat Iron – sealed by the representation millions of people have of it.
Preface to the catalog ofŒuvre Gravé Et Lithographié 2002-2014 written by Pierre Bergounioux.
