About Labor Robert
LABOR Artist https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6463628730605592576/ My ART I establish a permanent dialogue with the Art and the artists that I selected in my imaginary museum. My actions (with a lot of new beginnings, some erasures to finish my work in a quarter of a second !! ...., These actions ... supported ... repeated since 1965 become My BRAND ... ..My brand of expression that combines references to my own approach to the World. ..., An innovation in artistic expression ... Multiple influences rhythm, 'animism, magic forms What I wear in me LABOR ............................................................................... COMMENT BY M.C Labor Robert (LABOR) was born in Sainte Clotilde a small village in the North of the Reunion Island ... Self-taught painter since the age of 14 years. After a training in Drawing and Plastic Arts at the Claude Bernard Institute in Paris, he returned to the Reunion where he became a certified teacher and then Aggregate and an artist enjoying a good reputation: "I taught the day and I painted the night, "he says in front of the works produced at that time. The Ministry of Culture selects him for the creation of artwork for the Lycée Roland Garros Tampon and LABOR realizes the Dolmen, a monumental sculpture that creates a event in the years1978 / 79 He exhibits outside the island in cities such as Paris, Avignon, Geneva, Milan, New York in 2015 and recently in St Pierre in the south of the island. The pictorial approach of Labor Robert( LABOR) proceeds, at istar of a whole section of contemporary creation, of a constant questioning of the History of the Art. He revisits and appropriates influences and artistic movements (and creates others, The part-Over ... a reaction after the wild attack of the twin towers of NYC) he revisits the artistic movements questioning them of a point of view that wants to be plural. He maintains, through his painting, a dialogical relationship with the great modernist avant-garde and contemporary currents. Against isolation and alienation, the work of LABOR proposes a relationship between men and history and the landscape, time and space. ….Mélange, Richesse, Liberté,Improvisations,Refus de se cantonner dans unStyle mais les utilisant tous... une seule exigence : La Vérité…. CITATION of LABOR “Peindre c’est la joie d’être vivant et rentrer en ce Mystère de l’Esprit. Critic and Comment of M.C ................................................................................................ WORKS are already in COLLECTIONS .... Public and private ..... ......................................................................................... LABOR WRITTING: LABOR Artist Me, I open doors of the past, the present and the future ... respectful of the past, active in the present moment, looking to the future ..A future which already no longer belongs to me ... I like to put myself in default, in abyss, on the adventure of the most unforeseen attempts, to wander in the evolution of the thought (of the creative thought) in the time and the space, an investigation in this disorder ( Entropy) of History and men for the light to emerge, a little spark that straight handle up me on instantly in this fugitive feeling of revelation that seduces me, and interests us and gives us the feeling of really existing ... Here is my painting That is my WAY Far from all trend, from all modes and consensus, me ,creole coming from my ancestors of adventurers who thrived to the conquest of the oceans to discover the islands and mingle with the miscegenation of the world... here is my way ...the journey of my genes and my DNA I have not yet found my port, my home port, free like the trade wind that plays with our mountains and our coast ... Tomorrow will never be like yesterday ... But my soul says me... the trace, the wake of my boat brings with it the krill of the deep seas http://contenu-art.eu/thought.htm https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6463628730605592576/
