, Lienart, 2012 Softcover, 225 pages 14.5 x 1.8 x 21 cm . ISBN 9782359060676.
Cet essai examine le concept de l g ret en tant que principe artistique dans l'art contemporain. Il explore ce qui distingue l'expression l g re de ce que le public consid re parfois comme l ger , et le compare au poids des ?uvres avant-gardistes th oriquement lourdes. La publication met en lumi re l'?uvre de Raoul De Keyser, un artiste belge actif depuis 1963, dont les peintures se caract risent par une forme minimale et une expression sobre ? un style qui respire une certaine libert , autonomie et humour.
Cristof Yvor

Cristof Yvor (1967- 2013, Marseilles (FR)) Cristof Yvor starts out from remembered images in which a recognizable commonplace is reduced to its simplest form of expression. A patch of light on the wall of a room, the folds at the bottom of a drawn curtain, a table with a vase on it, empty or filled with flowers of all shapes and colours. Yvor painted these tranquil still-lifes consistently for years, refusing to provide any theoretical background, appearing isolated from any form of contemporary influence. The wear and tear these subjects have endured over the centuries gives these images a superficial feel that was precisely Yvor ?s starting point for his explorations as a painter. By building up lots of grainy layers and using paint he mixed himself, Yvor often found his paintings had the effect of being ?overpainted?. The substance of the paint formed a pastose crust. It is precisely in the working of the material that the boundary between an exaggerated, heavy painting and a stimulating new image was explored. Cristof Yvor had solo exhibitions at FRAC Auvergne (Clermont-Ferrand), M WOODS (Beijing), FRAC Provence-Alpes-C te d?Azur (Marseilles) and Museo d'Arte Contemporanea Villa Croce (Genoa). His work is included in the collections of Bronx Museum of the Arts (New York), FRAC Auvergne (Clermont-Ferrand), M WOODS (Beijing), FRAC Provence-Alpes-C te d?Azur (Marseilles), Hudson Valley for Contemporary Art (New York) and Het Domein (Sittard).
