Painting: timeless art…

One of the seven arts, painting is de facto reminiscent of the paintings exhibited in the most prestigious museums, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. However, it is a timeless form of art which has remarkably managed to span the ages, from before Jesus Christ to Prehistory, Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. If being a painter had nothing rewarding, today its democratization has made small shadow painters into protagonist artists of society. Oil painting, acrylic, watercolor, pastel or mixed media, painting captivates in all its forms.

Acrylic, a paint that adapts

Acrylic paint and its design

Acrylic is a paint whose solvent is largely composed of water. It is made from a mixture of pigments and acrylic resin and dries by evaporation of the water it contains.

The American printers Leonard Bocour and Sam Golden invented a first version of acrylic paint and put it on sale in 1949. Subsequently, the chemist Henry Levinson created artistic acrylic paint in 1963, diluted in water. Painters such as Andy Warhol and David Hockney used it very quickly. In Mexico, it was also designed around 1950. Chemists, in collaboration with Mexican mural painters, developed it during the creation of frescoes on the facades of the University of Mexico.

Description
La pochette de l’album y prend place au centre et se fond dans une interprétation du hors champs de la cover. L’écoute du disque est fondamentale lors du processus créatif, l’écoute de l’album est source d’inspiration auquel s’ajoute des recherches sur l’histoire des musiciens, de la fabrication, de l’enregistrement du 33T. La pluralité des visuels appelle à une une poly technicité, ainsi la matérialité de chaque tableau oscille entre des techniques allant de la peinture acrylique, au collage, au pochoir selon les albums. Pour une perception complète du tableau, un mp3 relié a un jack permet de plugger ses propres écouteurs afin d’apprécier le tableau le temps de l’écoute d’un titre complet
