FR : Une femme élancée, à la patine brune, tient un petit livre ouvert entre ses mains ; sa robe s'évase en une corolle de pages blanches, comme si la lecture devenait son vêtement. Rattachée à l'univers de l'écriture de Jean-Pierre Baldini, l'œuvre est accompagnée d'une lithographie signée aux couleurs éclatantes, où un livre rayonne comme un soleil.

Bronze et lithographie signée, 53 x 27 x 27 cm (20 7/8 x 10 5/8 x 10 5/8 in), 2021. Une ode élégante au plaisir de lire.


EN : A slender woman in brown patina holds a small open book in her hands; her dress flares into a corolla of white pages, as if reading had become her garment. Linked to Jean-Pierre Baldini's world of writing, the work comes with a signed, brightly coloured lithograph in which a book shines like a sun.

Bronze and signed lithograph, 53 x 27 x 27 cm (20 7/8 x 10 5/8 x 10 5/8 in), 2021. An elegant ode to the pleasure of reading.

Provenance

Se pencher sur les traces c'est conduire une enquête, comme les sioux de Longue Carabine ou d'Œil de Lynx, penchés sur les marques d’un sabot de cheval au pas ou au galop laissées dans la poussière du chemin.

Source d’information fragile et éphémère car le vent efface tout.

Literature

Le soleil et la pluie
métissent les souvenirs.
Ce qui reste beau
c'est la tache de miel,
gravée
de lumière et d'ombre.
Au gré du vent
la parole est partie.
