About Gérard Larguier

Gérard LARGUIER’s creations are a combination of current imaging technologies – from the digital camera and the photocopier to the computer – to which he integrates the use of acrylics and of various materials of synthesis and retrieval. His figurative – even narrative – art might therefore bewilder the eye due to the distortion and the accumulation of details. But it also gives the “reader” of his works the keys which enable him to enter them by following a path unique to his own sensibilities. Between puzzle and labyrinth, this therefore leads to a reconstitution and a path which free the creativity of “the one who looks”. From “Crowds” to “Masterpieces Revisited” and from “Memories” to Autos-da-fe”, they are the chronicles of yesterday and today that he explores, these very chronicles giving to the history of each one a collective importance.
