Im Atelier 1979

'Im Atelier' by Serge Brignoni is like a stage set for a play, alive with geometric shapes in rusty reds and faded blues. Imagine the artist in his studio, maybe in the midst of some turmoil, making marks that wrestle with the void, as he attempts to bring forms into the world. Look at this collection of shapes: circles, lines, and half-formed objects all jumbled together, creating a sense of depth and movement. I see a connection to Picasso and the Cubists with all these flat planes and broken perspectives. There is a tension here, a push and pull, between representation and abstraction. Brignoni is inviting us to look beyond the surface, to engage with the act of painting as a form of expression. It’s like he’s saying, let’s embrace the mess, the uncertainty, the questions.
