Francis Baudevin practices an art of trompe-l'œil, somewhere between abstraction and representation. In this exhibition, which looks back over the last twenty years of his work, he plays with categories, organising his paintings as suites of colours and formats, or families of mediums. Playing cards, one of the favourite tools of illusionists, become here a possible image of painting, reshuffled in such a way as to blend Pop Art, geometric abstract art and minimalist seriality.
The exhibition was supported by the Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia.
Exhibition as part of the Normandie Impressionniste festival.
