About the Item

Mixed Media (oil color, pigments, gold leaf, sand, lava) on canvas Signature in the bottom middle Murielle Argoud is a French artist born in 1954 who lives and works in Morges, Switzerland. From her earliest childhood, she began to paint, almost frantically, and then to write, a fascination that has stayed with her over the years. After several years abroad, then sixteen years in Basel, Switzerland, she settled on the shores of Lake Geneva with her family, although she always felt she was just passing through. Her eternal thirst for openness always pushes her towards "elsewhere", on the lookout for inspiration. In Europe, Murielle Argoud has some fifty solo exhibitions to her credit, an altar painting for a chapel, numerous works in private collections and public institutions. She has also taken part in several international art fairs, including two times at the Art Biennale in Venice as part of the ECC, European Cultural Center at Palazzo Bembo.

  • Shaped by the Elements - Poetry Painting with Poem by the Artist
    By Parris Jaru
    Located in New York, NY
    Parris Jaru's Shaped by the Elements is a 60 x 39 inches oil painting representing a poem laid on a green background. The modulated green shades frame the poem placed in the center. The surface is defined by a thick impasto of paint, made with plant based pigments that Jaru collects himself during his long exploratory trips through India. The surface is scraped and incised with words and signs, almost like graffiti on a wall or inscriptions on an archaeological fragment. The poem is written on top of a different colored impasto that creates the illusion as if it was written on ancient pergamena. Like for the ancient Chinese painter Wu Zhen, the composition focus on the dynamic balance of the elements. The poem, written by the artist, reads “On fire tho’ not in desire Kept wet from training for this occasion If to wonder let’s say by the rains in summer, I’m covered Can’t stand the fragility of castles created from sand and so should be able to defend against them, somehow So to say fragile is the law of this land, this man Babylon burns Such rhetoric from the emancipated, educated tho’ vegetated, shouting in the alley’s of folly is their anthem, forgetting to freedom fighters as replacements for them The earth burns by lightning to replenish the finished, replaced by quick wit and vegan breakfast Continue to insinuate as the fire burns Continue to read the menu; the entrée holds a new batch of manure, to adore Continue till the fire burns me brown...
