ALLEGORIE DE LA VANITE

Bruno Pezon so defines his representation of the world of the whim and the dream in an explicit representation and in one perfectionism obsessional of the invoice, comparable to the michelangélesque talent. Indeed, the artist suggests the other modes(fashions) of analysis of the volumes, by and through the light, and verifies him(it) on motives, as this big male nude.

In it is added the will to surprise, to disorientate the glances and the waits(expectations). As said it Breton André, leader of the surrealism, the picture(board) has to be " a window opened on the internal model ", so meaning that the introspective and reflexive elements of the painter must be visible and present on the painting(cloth). In the Allegory of the Vanity, Bruno Pezon retranscribed his life, his experiences(experiments), his(her,its) lost " innocence ", his internal tearings, so as to create a "torn" being, materially (as represented in the picture(board)) but also morally. This painting(cloth) would thus represent a " personal mythology ", by transposing its existence in the style of certain plastic of 1970s as Annette Messager or Sophie Calle.

The visible paradox of this picture(board), this disturbing bare male body, the physical and spiritual tension, the brilliances(radiations), the fictitious atmosphere of the scene(stage), the luminosity in the pure state, the vibration, the balance, the " personal mythologies ", this first really personal appropriation of the art and the paint(painting) by Bruno Pezon, make of this painting(cloth) a work of unprecedented art. In the logic of Michel - angel's Neoplatonism, the ideal beauty of this picture(board) establishes(constitutes) a direct access to the divine by the delight which it activates(starts). And so, as wrote it Paul Cézanne at the end of the XIXth century, Bruno Pezon succeeded in the fact that " the paint(painting) [produces] paintings(boards) which are educations(teachings). "
