Biography
“Coming from an art school that forged its loyalty to academic values, Jacques Guillet, with five decades of pictorial experience, draws his inspiration from the varied hues of his palette. The years spent in Provence imbue his works with a captivating light.
Originally from Vendée, passionate about architecture and lover of the sea, he breathes a realistic and authentic presence into these themes in his paintings, while transcending the colorful reality. At times, he frees himself from this temporal rigor, while preserving his favorite subjects. He places them with elegance and simplicity on the canvas, abandoning the faithful representation for a refined interpretation.
Freed from accuracy when it becomes time-consuming, he remains faithful to his favorite themes. His creations not only depict existing landscapes and monuments, but also express a desire to escape, giving birth to Landscapes of Elsewhere, fruits of his imagination, imbued with a revealing minimalism. An unsuspected source of pleasure for the artist. »
Gabrielle GERMAIN
"I trace my path in continuity. Over the years, even decades, I discover and re-define my artistic path. Evolving is not denying the past, it is moving forward with confidence, improving, and daring to simplify because mastery of complexity is acquired."
