Discover the contemporary work of Sako
Born in Montmartre in 1963, painting and writing have allowed Sako, whose real name is Serge Armagan, to put words to his pain. A painter for 40 years, but having always painted, he acknowledges that he is only just beginning to understand that the quest for excellence is a life's work and never ends. This humility, this quest for visual emotion that we offer to the gaze of others, are the guiding principles of his work.
Described as a contemporary impressionist by critics or a figurative painter by others, mainly art dealers and gallery owners, I prefer to use the term color mixer to work with motifs that always highlight nature, mainly the Sea, the Oceans, its foam and its nuances. Strongly influenced by Turner, post-impressionist painting and the romanticism of Gustave Doré, I try to bring out in a minimalist way, without human presence, the beauty of the world around us. A self-taught painter for 45 years, curiosity and copying nature have been my main sources of inspiration.
