Jean-Pierre Ghysels @ Artiscope

This Belgian artist ( 1932 ) knew how to create a personal universe rich in contrasts between sweetness of the polite subject and severity of that left raw, so playing with the light. "Without light, no sculpture" says moreover the artist. The vital lead of about fifteen sculptures presented in this exhibition, among which some new, pulls us in a world of volumes where the game of heights and space becomes metaphor of a space which would like to include rather than to exclude this continuous language. The curvature, the material - bronze or copper - return us towards the elements of the creation: earth, sea, sky, in a constant dialogue between the man and the universe.
