Jean Michel Mathieux-MarieLes Piler, by JMM Mathieux-Marie1979
1979
About the Item
Signed, titled and numbered, from the edition of 180. The base and parapets of a bridge.
Mathieux-Marie was born in Paris in 1947 and has been honored throughout his career with awards and exhibitions. His unique style of using a diamond point to scratch an image into a steel plate is complemented by his own methods of printing on one paper in the style of chine colle. The image is then cut out and mounted to another stronger paper.
He has done many engravings to illustrate livres d’artistes for the works of great writers like Michel Déon, Federico Garcia Lorca, Julien Gracq or Francis Ponge.
While many of his subjects are recognizable as famous destinations in Paris, Rome and Venice, they go much further than mere illustration. He has also worked on fantastical subjects where the full range of his creativity can be seen. He was initially trained as a architect, receiving his degree in 1972, but was soon introduced to dry-point engraving in 1974.

- SereniteBy François HoutinLocated in Palm Springs, CAThis is a unique print from the second state, signed and titled in pencil. the final edition of 180 was completed for the Société des peintres-graveurs français. This is a great example of the texture and tone that can be achieved with drypoint. In keeping with the best Italian traditions, Houtin's gardens are well furnished with fragmentary architecture conveying a mood of elegiac decay, while the vestiges of grand designs, manifest in a profusion of topiary-lined avenues, evoke French precedents. Elsewhere, temples and pavilions scattered over undulating slopes speak of an enthusiasm for English garden practice. Bordering at times on the surreal, baroque in their richness and extravagance of conception, Houtin's gardens are hybrid creations in terms of both their botany and architecture, which wittily plunder a wide spectrum of conventions. François Houtin was born in Craon en Mayenne, France in 1950. He has lived and worked in Paris since 1971. He was trained as a landscape architect, and worked on such prominent projects as the renovation of the Jardin des Tuilleries in 1991. It wasn't until 1973 that he learned printmaking from Jean Delpech, and by 1979 he had become a full-time artist known for his highly detailed prints...Category
