Dark Modern Abstract, French Artist, Original Oil Painting
By French artist Franck Duminil (1933-2014)
Signed by the artist verso
Oil painting on canvas, unframed
Canvas size: 19 x 14 inches
Discover the art of Franck Duminil, one of the greatest lyrical abstractionists of our time. Yet his extreme modesty kept his work hidden for most of his life time. Photos can not convey the profound spirituality and tranquility of being in the presence of a real Duminil.
Franck Duminil was born in 1933. He spent his youth between Paris and Bearn (South-West of France) where he was steeped in Pyrenean nature.
1954 -1958, while learning to paint, frequented the studios of architecture at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Bordeaux and Paris.
I963: began exhibiting his first works, and in 1968 decided to devote himself to painting. Several monumental works and numerous exhibitions in France and abroad. 1983 moved to Montmartre.
Permanently in galleries in France and abroad and participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions. Now in private collections, foundations, museums.
Recent exhibitions:
2013 - Museum Ningbo, China. Solo exhibition and travel in January 2013. ART aujourd'hui gallery, Paris, June-July 2013.
From April 11 to May 18, 2013 Duminil was invited to exhibit eighteen paintings in the Cathedral of Rouen. 2012: Gallery Balastra, Belgium - 2008 - 2010 to 2012: Europia Gallery, Paris.
Franck died on June 13, 2014.
An artwork of Duminil immediately imposes its presence. Not that his approach is easy because one must rid oneself from appearances, forget the outline of things, to receive their undifferentiated original shape. Franck Duminil however, is not an "abstract" painter in the common sense of the word. He is far more than that. Abstraction, for him, far from being a pure play of forms, is a primordial trip toward the essential, there where form does not yet exist.
His paintings are the lieu of emergence of all the possibles. Some traces and the original brilliance of a blue, a yellow, or a red, emerge out of the night or of the dawn. Duminil reaches beyond spatial and temporal characteristics to allow us a glimpse of the undifferentiated basis of things. This "not yet happened", this "informal", this plunge into the indefinite are the very substance of his artwork.
Condition report:
The painting and canvas are both in a very pleasing condition.
