ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Boson: elementary particle twelve in number What is reality? How to explain what we do not see? – Or at least only through a particular media: senses, instrumentation or one’s mind. Elementary particle whose existence was theoretically postulated in 1964, it was not until 2012, that the Higgs boson was formally observed at CERN (the European research organization that operates the largest particle physics laboratory in the world) using the most powerful particle accelerator ever built: the LHC (Large Hadron Collider). In line with this destabilizing observation, how can we conceive a non-perceptible ontological fact? How distorted is our relationship to reality? How should we devise that which we cannot see? In the world of particle physics, where mass = energy equivalence is recalled by a famous Einstein equation, this series of "Bosons" paintings explores the strange relation between energy or matter and our own subjectivity. Created using acrylic paint, all thirteen works on display explore the world of the infinitely small. Each painting is done in a minimum of two coats, worked only with custom tools.

Lancelot Blondeel is a contemporary painter born in 1988, currently living and working in Vincennes (France). Drawing on his background in engineering, the artist explores in his abstract creations the relationship between humans and the experience of reality. His work is primarily distinguished by two main series: the "No Reason" series, featuring vibrant colors and spontaneous, hand-drawn gestures, and the "Interlaced Landscapes" series, consisting of abstract landscapes composed of horizontal or vertical bands. The artist works with raw materials such as cotton canvas, wood, pigments, and varnishes. His method is characterized by the use of handmade tools. Each new painting series follows a process of development akin to the scientific method, involving the creation of a specific technique. Rejecting being confined to any particular style or formalism, the artist's research encompasses both gestural and geometric abstraction. Lancelot Blondeel is interested in texture, using layering and impasto techniques to create a tactile surface effect. The use of curved lines with varying thicknesses contributes to a sense of movement. .blondeel Solo Show 2024 | Rue de Verneuil | Paris, France 2023 | Aux Tables | Paris, France Collective Shows 2024 | Private exhibition organized by the Galerie 12 | Paris, France - Galerie 12, rue des Beaux-Arts | Paris, France - Salon d'automne (120th edition) | Paris, France 2023 | Salon des Artistes du Val-de-Marne (137th edition) - Villa Médicis | Saint-Maur, France - Galerie Francis Barlier | Paris 8th, France 2022 | "True Form" - Virtual Artists | London, United Kingdom © Adagp
