Eric Dizambourg
-
Working primarily in painting and video, Eric Dizambourg merges the burlesque with the rustic, blurring the boundaries between reality and representation. The fantastical and baroque universe created by Dizambourg offers a glimpse into his personal history, as well as the history of painting. His paintings incorporate the dripping technique of Pollock; the thick gesture of Leroy; the expressionist gesture of Soutine; and the violence of Goya’s black paintings, vaguely tempered by Raysse’s predilection for pop colors. Something of an iconoclast, Dizambourgs work depict art motifs in a comical way – painting becomes autonomous and plays on the freedom of gesture of this libertine artist.
