Discover the contemporary work of Marc DANCRE
"Self-taught octogenarian painter", artistic work resources my daily life, while I essentially articulate my inspiration around the Human, the freely deciphered natural living! This is why, wishing to restore the charismatic spontaneity, the expression, the vitality or the bitterness of a look, the attitude or the fleeting movement, my subjects live and intertwine with the colorful links of a turbulent palette, so true is it that through a visual identity freeing itself from trends, "the Human" constitutes one of the main threads of my creative approach!
Having lived a professional career full of challenges, and while the winter cold gently tickles me, I remain a fervent admirer of beauty and generous Art! My quest on ARTactif will remain to make people appreciate a style that contemporary sensibilities consider "outdated"... Mission seems accomplished, since more than 60,000 of you have lingered over one or the other of my paintings... Thank you all!
A fan of brushed "oil", 500 figurative canvases and frescoes nuanced with rough impressionism, constitute a catalog that has remained faithful to the intimate, to the visual reality, the depth and dynamics of the subject! I remain an inveterate "old-style classical painter" who, fixing the image on the canvas (nature doing things so well) transposes it without any imperative for fundamental recomposition... I participated in exhibitions of which I have not kept a record, as only the pleasure of "being there" and sharing motivated my presence... Some paintings were noticed, awarded prizes and/or published in the regional press... Some sold, finally more were offered to loved ones and/or friends.
I propose commercial values adapted to ARTactif expertise as it is important to respect the work, and remain careful not to devalue the work of other artists. Finally, I convince myself that at the magic insert where the work appeals to him, the amateur will free himself from budgetary constraints, as appropriating a coveted piece of art is assimilated to the symbolism of the romantic journey!!
Residents of "Haut Savoyard", the delicate porcelain painter that is my wife, and I, "survive" within our creations! Because in addition to the precious porcelain, seventy of my paintings and frescoes animate this place of life! This is how nightfall and as I walk along the walls winding towards the resting place, I greet my exhibited characters in passing, creating the moment devoid of subterfuge where our crossed glances exchange...in a shared hoped-for emotional flash..Because I love my characters!! (I didn't say "admire"....).
I imagine then that each of them reinforces the idea of survival through the work constituted... and induced memories!
Silent, soothing connivances in the shadows, the sporadic unfolding of a rest... prostate!!
Best wishes, Dear Friends of Art.
