Praz-Delavallade presents the third one-man show of Swiss artist,
Philippe Decrauzat. The first room in the rue Louise Weiss gallery displays an installation consisting of five different canvasses. Each of these canvasses represents an excerpt from a longer sequential line. They are placed in the space out of order, in a break with continuity. Philippe Decrauzat stresses the illusion through a motif borrowed from op art as applied to his big scale Shaped Canvasses. As a result, the viewer finds himself physically involved through immersion in a perceived experience that situates him in an authentic de-construction, a kind of freeze frame shot.
The way the artist displays the works in the space and the concept of the paintings themselves is close to motion picture editing techniques and points to Philippe Decrauzat’s interest in experimental movies and optical technologies. The concept of perception lies at the core of this kind of cinematography, which Decrauzat explores in his third film.
