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
Cette oeuvre est une réflexion personnelle autour de la notion de culture. Qu'est ce qu'une culture commune? Comment mieux diffuser la culture pour tirer chacun vers le haut? Une évidence s'est alors imposée à Stéphane Cantin lors de la réalisation de ce tableau. la presse en tant qu'outil d'information devait avoir sa place au côté de l'art afin d'atteindre cet objectif. La presse à notre époque est largement critiqué et beaucoup s'informe sur les réseaux sociaux. Or le véritable travail de journalisme consiste à vérifier les informations diffusées ce qui n'est pas toujours le cas sur les réseaux sociaux. Il lui semblait donc important à ce moment précis de mettre en avant les mots des journalistes pour élever la connaissance et la culture commune symbolisées ici par la Tour Eiffel.
