Jean Paul Blais - Serenity in Black

Jean Paul Blais does not seek to raise an idea, or to describe. Only the creative act is essential to transmit to the matter the fruit of his meditation, of his mental voyage. An act that is each time reinvented through new dialogues with the matter. Under the title: "The Silence of Thought", Blais currently exposes a series of his fascinating reliefs at LKFF Art & Sculpture Projects.

Why this single title for all his pieces? The artist replies, “It is what I have always used. I would like my work to bring a sense of peacefulness, of tranquility. That one's mind is eased while one lets silence settle. I enjoy the moment when the spirit is surprised and suspended. The stake of my art is to bring the person back towards his inner self, towards serenity.”

Velasco Vitali's most recent hounds

While VItali prepares up his next major show, titled "Foresta Rossa", opening in June in Italy's magnificent setting of the Isola Madre , it is a pleasure for us to shelter some new hounds by the famous Italian artist. We have loved the pack last year and can't wait to introduce Centralia and Juan Parangaricutiro to our visitors.
