Discover the contemporary work of Marc DANCRE
Artistic work replenishes my daily life as an octogenarian self-taught painter, while my subjects revolve around the Human, the freely deciphered natural life! 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 characters 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" remains the incomparable evocative power of our feelings!
Having lived a professional career filled with challenges, and while the winter chill gently tickles me, I remain a fervent admirer of beauty and generous Art! My quest on ARTactif is, above all, to promote appreciation for a style that "contemporary sensibilities" considered "obsolete"... Mission seems accomplished, since every day there are many visitors lingering over one or other of my almost two hundred paintings on display!!!
Thank you all!
A fan of brushed oil, more than 500 figurative canvases and frescoes nuanced with rough impressionism, constitute my catalog, remaining faithful to the intimate, to the visual reality, to the depth and dynamics of the subject! I remain an inveterate "painter of the "old" which, fixing the image on the canvas (nature being sufficient in itself...) works on it without the need for reinterpretation!! Thus a human body, a face, will be translated into their visual realities. or approaching them!!
I have, as an amateur, participated in exhibitions of which I have not kept a record, so much so that only the pleasure "of being" and share, motivated my presence... Some paintings were noticed there, some sold, finally more numerous those offered to loved ones... This is how except in cases of personal attachment to a painting, I propose commercial values remaining in minimalist coherence of the "ARTactif" expertise... As much as I persuade myself that at the magic moment triggering his desire, the amateur will emancipate himself from the financial aspects, because appropriating the coveted work identifies with A journey of love!!
Residents of a comfortable "Haut Savoyard" house, the delicate porcelain painter that is my wife, and I, live within our creations! For in addition to the precious porcelain, more than seventy canvases and frescoes enliven our living space! And so it is that as night falls, as I walk along the winding walls to the resting place, moments devoid of subterfuge with my characters, a sort of emotional flash, are established under our crossed gazes. inducing the idea of survival through the work created, and the memories induced! Silent complicity that, in the shadows, soothes the sporadic unfolding of my rest... . prostatic!!
Best regards, Friends of Art.

N.B.: Being a poor photographer, my shots come out raw, which is why reality far outweighs the cliché!! .. .
And this is especially true since the canvases are still awaiting varnish to give them more shine!!!!
