Laurent Messager Born on 15th July in 1966 in Rueil Malmaison - France. Holds a degree in arts from fine arts school of Versailles and fines arts scholl of Montpellier Workshop : 76 Grande rue des Salines 76370 Martin eglise - FranceWith his acute sense of observation, Laurent Messager is able to reveal us in a unique way, behaviours and sense of the street which raises questions about our daily routine. His eye for detail is equal to his masterly brushstrokes which are live and soft. Always ready to catch up the smallest gesture or exquisite feature‘s in the facial expression of a passerby in the street, or of an angry demonstrator or musician….. Born in 1966 and graduated from Montpellier and Versailles schools of fine arts. Fascinated by sciences and physics and nanotechnology, we discover a singular artist who expresses himself through diverse techniques in variable formats. Always armed with notebook and sketchbook, it allowing him to memorise ambiances whilst becoming a relevant witness to our society. The oil on canvas also available in large format compliments the charcoal on paper or alternatively the maroufle canvas on “medium” panel..Compositions show suggested spaces, and wide perspectives enjoyed by amateurs. We discover an expressive and realistic figuration improved in some cases by the alternation juxtaposition of warm-cold colours."La grande rue" ( Great street ) perfectly illustrates the "knohow" and "how to see" of the artist. As lignes and strokes, impassioned as they are rare, the artist prefers using the matter with care and accuracy. A mirror allows you to discover hidden texts and graffiti, within meticulously combinations. Laurent Messager does not get stuck in a genre or another but never hesitates to explore new ways of expression. His successful and intricate artwork is the result of the artist's hard work, who finds solace in an insatiable research of authentic artistic values. Bernard Boscher Art critic / Expert CE.
