Grégoire Mathias
Original poster Périgueux 2023 / Affiche originale.

2023

About the Item

Chaque année Grégoire Mathias produit une affiche de tourisme avec pour sujet la ville de Périgueux, en Dordogne. Etant collectionneur d'affiches, il a remarqué qu'il n'existait que 2 affiches anciennes originales (une en 1924 et une en 1950) qui faisaient la promotion du chef-lieu du Périgord. Etant artiste, et réalisant les affiches de l'ONU, il a donc décidé de produire lui aussi des affiches d'art sur ce sujet, depuis 2021. Ce modèle est celui créé en 2023. Il reste du cubisme diachronique, mais son expression est basée plus sur le dessin que la décomposition des lumières. Ce qui donne à cette affiche des similitudes avec certaines œuvres de Jean Cocteau ou Fernand Léger. Grégoire nous montre aussi bien le clocher de la cathédrale St Front (un des plus anciens de France), que la Tour de Vésonne, vestige gallo-romain. Le visage féminin quant à lui est celui d'une allégorie de la ville sur une fontaine installée au XIXème siècle. Il représente même le fronton romain aujourd'hui disparu, du temple de Vésonne. Bref, 2000 ans d'histoire dans une affiche. Remarquons aussi la citation de Michel de Montaigne, lui aussi périgourdin : " A l'opposé d'un certain autre, j'aimerais mieux à l'aventure, être le second ou le troisième à Périgueux que le premier à Paris". Bien que le style de cette affiche tranche avec le cubisme diachronique habituel de l'artiste, il a quand même conservé ce qui en fait sa force : Les couleurs, la décompositions des formes du réel, l'architecture, le corps humain. Cette affiche originale est signée dans la planche. Sur demande, il est possible de demander qu'elle soit contresignée à la main par l'artiste. Elle a été éditée à 400 exemplaires seulement. We are sorry for the situation pictures, which are photos published automatically by 1stdibs against our will. These presentations are incorrect, ugly, and the proportions in the decor are completely wrong. Please disregard this.

  • Afternoon during the autumn
    Located in PÉRIGUEUX, FR
    During a family afternoon in Perigord, the artist wanted to represent all the remarkable elements that his gaze encountered. The changing colors of autumn, a walker on a path… Grégoire Mathias is the inventor of diachronic cubism. An unxeplored way of cubism, who shows landscapes, situations and above all, the notion of time. His works are at the same time a decomposition of subjects, lights, in a specific period of time.
