De l’ombre à la lumière

L’opposition du blanc sur le noir. Les toiles d’André Marfaing, pourtant abstraites, semblent nous raconter une histoire, ce récit d’un combat perpétuel, cette envie de la toile d’absorber le sombre, le chaos du noir et d’y incruster le calme et la paix du blanc, comme un triomphe de la lumière. Et à travers des traits de pinceaux, jaillissant, presque sauvages, de l’imagination de l’artiste, les œuvres nous invitent à nous plonger dans ce conflit, cette relation entre haine et passion, douleur et amour. Un minimalisme prenant, où la quête d’une pureté semble peuplée de noirceur.
