La rivière en feu by Jean-Louis Bessède
Jean-Louis Bessède cites the influence of French spiritualism, seeking to ‘give voice to matter, to sublimate it’ in a quest for inner truth. His painting thus constitutes a ‘total visual language’, blending technical mastery with intuition, experimentation with the legacy of the great masters (Velázquez, Bacon, Giacometti).
