Fabienne Verdier

Marais Space

The exhibition, entitled Painting and presented at the Gallery Jaeger Bucher, features some forty new works by the French artist Fabienne Verdier. For this show, the artist has conceived a reflection on three themes — Ligne espace-temps (lines space-time), Arborescence (branching) and Incandescence (tribute to Flemish Masters).

Fabienne Verdier’s painting is continuous with the experiments of the American abstract artists — Tobey, Kline, Still, Pollock or De Koonning —, and carries on the work of artists who have explored the line, such as Matisse, Michaux or Degottex… Each of these canvases is imbued with a subtle balance from which emanates a constancy: the quest for the simple. The form is spontaneous, emergent, expansive, unfinished… and in its ink reveals the enigma of its mineralization.
