The exhibition


François Dilasser. The noise of our lives.

From June 5 to November 13, the Espace Paul Rebeyrolle is devoting an exhibition to François Dilasser, a Breton painter whose work defies classification, being situated on the edge of abstraction and figuration. If this self-taught artist, marked by the work of Paul Klee, Matisse and Picasso among others, gives importance to the forms that gradually take hold to make sense of the space of the canvas, in a state of "permanent mutation" as Olivier Delavallade, the curator of the exhibition, points out, a great deal of space is also given to chance, which participates in the work by giving birth to unexpected figures. It is this great freedom of creation and meaning that Dilasser claims: "I never start directly from reality, even if I sometimes realize afterwards that a certain form corresponds to things I have recorded, it can evoke a still life, become a landscape, or a human form. I don't title my paintings, so that this shape can continue to slide from one meaning to another..." It is thus in the middle of the metamorphoses of these forms and these colors that we are thus free to let us carry, to find there, in the successive touches of painting, echoes of the noise of our lives.
