About the Item

Olivier Desvaux is thirty-three years old. He graduated from Arts Deco in Paris in 2006. His professional beginnings were marked by illustration in Jeunesse edition. Oliviere regularly exhibits her paintings in galleries since 2010 in Le Havre, Rouen, Paris and Tokyo. This painter-traveler captures light, the elements and the living throughout his many journeys. He works in the studio with these imprints of memory and emotion. His ambition is to be a sensitive witness of our contemporary world and to reveal his poetry. “My fascination with nature and light naturally led me to painting. I set out to conquer outdoor painting. I traveled around the world with my easel, I immersed myself in different universes. I followed in painting sports events (sailing race, Polo tournament...) and artistic performances (classical music concerts, ballets of the Opera Garnier...). Painting is an experience with the living. I need to have this intimate exchange with my subject to better paint it and express my feelings with sincerity.The work in the workshop from these imprints of memory allows to take the necessary distance to detach myself from the pattern, compose, make choices, interpret, work the nuances, contrasts, give strength and meaning to the painting. I have a contemplative and optimistic approach to the world, I want to share a certain poetry of light."

  • Maurice Lobre (1862 -1951) The snack
    By Maurice Lobre
    Located in BELEYMAS, FR
    Maurice LOBRE (Bordeaux 1862 - Paris 1951) Le goûter Huile sur toile H. 87 cm ; L. 91,5 cm Format peint d’origine, H. 101 cm ; L. 96 cm, disposé sur un châssis plus petit par l’artiste lui-même. Signée et datée 1888 en bas à droite Provenance : Collection privée, Lyon Exposition : 1889, Salon des Artistes Français, n°1719 « Intérieur », (ou 1720 nommé également « Intérieur ») Œuvres en rapport : Le Cabinet de toilette de Jacques-Emile Blanche, (titre erroné) H. 80 cm ; L. 85 cm, HST, Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid, pendant de notre toile. Maurice Lobre a-t-il connu Marcel Proust ? On ne peut encore l'affirmer, bien qu'il ait eu de nombreux amis en commun avec l'écrivain. Mais sa peinture intimiste pourrait illustrer certaines pages de Du côté de chez Swann. Trois citations dues à des proches de Proust, l'une de l'écrivain Léon Daudet, la seconde du peintre Jacques-Emile Blanche, la dernière du poète mondain Robert de Montesquiou, donnent un aperçu de ce que fut la renommée de Maurice Lobre en son temps : "Il en va autrement de Lobre, le Vermeer français, le peintre exquis des intérieurs et des palais de Versailles, des reflets sur les meubles rares, de la lumière prisonnière des miroirs, des laques et des cuivres polis. Lobre est joyeux comme un coup de vent, qui fait envoler les préjugés et les poncifs, éloquent, passionné, ivre de la couleur et des formes, charmant et conquérant de toutes les matières. Il se promène ici-bas ainsi que dans un musée en plein-air, s'amuse de tout, rejette et maudit le laid et le vil, accueille et bénit le beau et le bien…" Léon Daudet L'Entre-deux-guerres. Souvenirs des milieux littéraires, politiques, artistiques et médicaux de 1880 à 1905. "Voici le patient, appliqué, sage M. Lobre. Il est difficile de mettre plus d'honnêteté à peindre des intérieurs sans figures. Je préfère ses petits salons de Versailles à ses cathédrales… Nous lui devons des petits bijoux d'émotion et de large fini." Jacques-Emile Blanche "Il a recueilli sur des toiles le visage du vieux Versailles (…). Il a peuplé de visions impalpables des chambres " où il s'est passé quelque chose ", et il en a saturé l'atmosphère de particules historiques. Donner une telle impression avec certitude, avec vérité, c'est plus difficile que de faire évoluer des personnages costumés, dans ce qu'on appelle bêtement "une reconstitution historique"." Comte Robert de Montesquiou Maurice Lobre commence sa carrière au Salon de 1882 où il expose deux portraits, dont celui de son camarade de l'atelier Carolus-Duran, le peintre espagnol Ramon Casas...
