The Society of creators

1991, The Society of creators. The creators referred to in these homage paintings were recognized, for the most part, only after their death. This series testifies to their life and to their contribution to general culture during their lifetimes and it testifies especially to the evolution of current significance, because today each one of us feels penetrated by their teaching. Once this qualifying revaluation is accomplished - portrait, documents, relations, family and traces cohabit in a unified plane - it refers to a justification which emphasizes their delayed identification. Even if since their time it has already occurred, we will never be sufficiently grateful for their creations.
