Synopsis
Advertising slogans, punning neon signs, chocolate brand and movie studio logos – Ste?phan Landry’s variegated world of fiction and commerce is a Hollywood idyll in which, as the slogan goes, “Tout va bien”. On sheets of A3 paper during and after his training in Geneva, on squared loose-leaf during his wanderjahre, then softened recycled paper due to dire straits, Landry created a veritable Warholian alphabet executed in techniques ranging from gouache, ink, glaze, synthetic varnish to Tipp-Ex. The happiness industry may pitch the bright side of life as loudly as it likes: Landry bares its underlying mechanisms by means of exaggeration, turning his pop art into an intimate portrait of the artist and his everyday environs. Landry’s signature mischievousness is all over his iconic works, and he invests them with a sensuality that is less sumptuous than explicit. And yet there they are, anonymous and isolated from the world, silhouettes frail as those by Markus Raetz.

About the Author
L'univers de l'artiste suisse Stéphan Landry (1960-2009) est quasi exclusivement celui du dessin. Très personnelles, le plus souvent de petit format, les œuvres trahissent l'acuité du regard d'un artiste à la très grande sensibilité, qui perçoit le monde dans toute sa complexité. C'est dans les carnets réalisés à Rome en 1998 que l'artiste puise la matière de son œuvre à venir. Ils vont ainsi devenir des répertoires de « mythologies » rattachées à la culture populaire, mais aussi littéraire. Chez l'artiste, le double, le multiple, le complexe apparaissent à chaque instant : ici un dessin sur papier calque, là son double, puis son reflet inversé. Dans ces jeux de mots récurrents et ces constants détournements d'images, subtilité et ambiguïté ne cessent d'affleurer.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Werbeslogans, Wortspiele als Leuchtschriften, Logos von Schokoladenmarken und Filmstudios - die bunte Welt von Stéphan Landry ist Fiktion und Kommerz, eine Welt à la Hollywood, wo alles gut geht. Während und nach seiner Ausbildung in Genf noch auf A3-Bögen, in karierten Ringbüchern während seiner Wanderjahre, später dann finanziell bedingt auf durchweichtem Recycling-Papier schafft Landry ein geradezu Warholisches Alphabet und verwendet dazu die unterschiedlichsten Techniken wie Gouache, Tinte, Lasur, synthetischen Lack und sogar Tipp-Ex. So sehr die positive Seite der Glücksindustrie beschworen wird, stellt Landry genau deren Mechanismen durch Übertreibung bloss und der Pop wird zu einer intimen Geschichte über den Künstler selbst und seine alltägliche Umgebung. Landrys ganz eigener Schalk erfüllt die ikonischen Sujets, durchdringt sie mit seiner eher expliziten als schwelgerischen Sinnlichkeit. Und dennoch stehen sie vereinzelt und anonym in Bezug zur Welt mit den zerbrechlichen Silhouetten eines Markus Raetz. Seller Inventory # 9783906803449
