Gérard Priault
Du ciel et de la terre, la part des nuages by Gérard Priault - Oil painting

Contemporary

About the Item

Du ciel et de la terre, la part des nuages is a unique oil on canvas painting by contemporary artist Gérard Priault, dimensions are 81 × 100 cm (31.9 × 39.4 in). The artwork is signed, sold unframed and comes with a certificate of authenticity. In this painting, trees dominate the canvas, enveloping the viewer in pristine nature. A damp mist weaves through the vegetation, lending an air of mystery. Gérard Priault takes inspiration from nature, especially during his extensive travels through tropical rainforests. Immersing himself in these untouched environments, he absorbs their essence, yet his paintings are not direct representations. Instead, they emerge from his imagination, shaped by memories and impressions. These mysterious, dreamlike landscapes invite viewers to imagine the sounds of wildlife, feel the humid air, and marvel at the vivid vegetation. With a precise and deliberate technique, Gérard Priault constructs his scenes tree by tree, leaf by leaf. For him, creation is an inward journey where time seems to dissolve, and the painting itself guides its composition. This timeless quality is echoed in his works, leaving viewers to wonder: are they witnessing the past, the present, or the future?

Untitled (Ship Harbor)
By Cobi Moules
Located in East Quogue, NY
Winter landscape painting by Cobi Moules - Oil on canvas Exhibition History: "New England Now: People," Shelburne Museum, Vermont (June 26 - October 17, 2021) Driven by the desire for adventure and discovery, Cobi Moules embraces the beauty of nature all the while shifting its weight through the exaltation of his own existence within, and as part, of it. This is best exemplified by the way he incorporates multiple self-portraits throughout his compositions. The multiplicity of self takes both precedence over, as well as integration into, the landscape creating a world with a sense of excitement, self-worth and play. The locations of Moules’ compositions are equally important. All of the locations were previously depicted in paintings by the Hudson River School. Through the exploration of the grand American landscape and the reflection on mid-19th century American landscape painting, Moules navigates the parallels between the Hudson River School and the religious ideology that was an integral part of his formative years. Shared throughout both is the elevation of purity, virginity and the honor of sacrificing one’s selfhood for the glory of God. As the Hudson River School artists’ work embodies the overpowering force of God made manifest through nature, so do the religious voices of Moules’ past against the validation of his existence. Moules states, “As a queer and trans person, I seek to renegotiate my relationship with this upbringing and the act of being told I am ‘unnatural’ through such a Christian lens. I utilize traditional representation as a way of seeking inclusion while disrupting the original narrative. Creating a space for personal significance and a queer and trans presence, the importance becomes the experience of my multiple and overall presence. It is a community of me playing, exploring my selves, exploring nature and being part of it.” Landscape, nature, figurative painting, self portrait, portrait, seascape, coastline, seashore, Hudson River School, contemporary art, Ship Harbor...

Salix
By Robert Marchessault
Located in Montreal, Quebec
My painting is an inquiry. I make images as a way of responding to experiences that are important to me. Experiences that help me to understand why I’m in this world often happens when I am outside in large open spaces. Painted images act as a tool. I respond to the spaces my art suggests. That response is usually non-verbal. I am interested in the experience of non-duality that “getting lost” in big spaces can sometimes produce for me. The paintings have gone through a range of artistic treatments with the recent years seeing a focus on space, light, textures, atmosphere and distance. My landscape paintings are made from memory, not from on-site drawings or photographs. I use memory as a filtering agent to remove non-essential visual elements. When a work is successful, it must have a sense of poetry. There is nothing “new...
