Contemporary Art New York | Alexandre Guillaume's photostream

Alexandre Guillaume keeps very passionate memories of his childhood in a village in the north of France.

His travels, his background, his migrations constitute the basis of so many events of his life. These scenes removed with vivacity are some notes that will serve as basis in the calm of his studio to compose and build his art.

Alexandre Guillaume creates a linear effect with a powerful tension between its black and gray background colors helping him to fossilize his creative act.

His paintings are generally large and medium sizes. The expansion of his paintings is now clear and increasing over time. The large format emphasizes speed of movement and sharpens echoes the canvas on the existence of the person viewing it.

Alexandre takes the speed and impatience that we experience in everyday life and cultivates it into his work.
