Art does not reproduce the visible, it makes visible.
Paul Klee

The Synthèse group is distinguished by its desire to bring together artists whose work lies between figuration and abstraction, emphasising emotion and poetry rather than an explicit representation of the subject: we find different sensitive and poetic currents represented at the Salon d'Automne, works that respond to each other and harmonise to work together in a rhythmic, musical display, where calm and accents alternate.

The techniques are varied: oil paint, acrylic, collage, mixed media, fresco. Saying with silences, colours and shapes, or simply suggesting...

And then, as every year, the artists meet up to share their experiences, doubts and hopes.

I would like to thank Cécile Valtat for her insight and assistance in preparing for the exhibition.
