Eric Beauplace
French Contemporary Sculpture by Eric Beauplace - Illusion Urbaine

2015

About the Item

Mixed media: linen canvas, acrylic paint, wood, mirrored acrylic glass, polished stainless steell. Eric Beauplace is a French contemporary plastic artist born in 1962 who lives & works in Saint Germain-en-Laye, France. The term ‘plastic artist’ is not used here in the traditional sense. Eric Beauplace manipulates materials, creates colors and volumes, and composes, but the tools he uses are not those of a sculptor or a painter. Nothing is fixed in the works he produces; motion is constant. His works are intimately linked to the surrounding light, the movements of the viewer and of every eye that settles on them. Eric Beauplace’s wall sculptures use materials to receive light and pass it on to each other, creating an intense optical experience. The transparencies and reflections, sparkles, diffractions, and other phenomena that they produce open up many possible avenues for interpretation. Colours are born, blend and break free, patterns repeat and give rhythm to the whole. Unpredictability prolongs the work indefinitely, in a harmony of sculptural contingencies meticulously set up by the artist. As a viewer himself of what he creates, Eric Beauplace is a researcher, he experiments, observes, pursues to the end and repeats his creative processes. His work is a constant experiment that he invites the viewer to participate in. More than just conveying a message, the artist aims to arouse a sense of escape, perhaps even meditation. The artist has created a path with the viewer at the centre, walking through this changing environment, never able to completely discern what it is. A dimensional, chromatic intimacy is forged, a reflection of the visible and its slow changes. This unique, fluid and highly visual work by Eric Beauplace is experienced through contemplation and, at the risk of losing ourselves in it, enriches us with a new spirituality.

  • VERSO EQUIVALENCE 1 - acrylic, staples, pine wood, cut linen -Abstract geometric
    By Linda King Ferguson
    Located in Signal Mountain, TN
    This painting by Linda King Ferguson is part of her equivalence series, which began as a feminist project; works that subvert the historically male gaze and a material language speaking of gendered concerns. While typically, King Ferguson paints both sides of the canvas and cuts a flap on the the frontside to reveal the color of the back of the canvas, she unexpectedly does the opposite here. The painting is hung from the "frontside" of the canvas, revealing to us the raw edges of her linen canvas, stapled to the stretchers. Two oblong shapes of pink and red dominate the center of the painting. A thin semioval cut has been made inside of both of these shapes. Her color choices first came from Helen Molesworth’s essay, Painting With Ambivalence, published in WACK! Art of the Feminist Revolution. The Essay includes a large reproduction of Mary Heilmann’s 1979 painting...
