Pierre Richir

Pierre Richir since 1977 and also practices applied arts activities (mosaic, sets, design, illustration). After thirty years of a non -figurative approach, it is back from 2013, towards a form of figuration mixed with abstract elements. His influences are mainly musical (Brian Eno, Robert Fripp, Laurie Anderson, David Sylvian ...) and literary (Jean Ray, Hermann Hesse, H.P. Lovecraft, Idries Shah ...). His techniques mix acrylic paint and oil paint. In the works of Pierre Richir, the characters are placed in improbable places that propel the spectator into a universe of questioning on: time, the precariousness of life, the human condition and the contemporary world
