Arthur Aillaud Painting, drawing Arthur Aillaud’s landscapes are often overlaid by geometric figures radically hiding their depth of field as their convergence lines. Aillaud creates a constant back and forth between flatness of the canvas and depth of the landscape, creating a very upbeat dialogue within his paintings between nature and architecture, abstraction and figuration.	Illés Sarkantyu Photography “The Paraphrase is a recurring stylistic device in Illés Sarkantyu’s work. Whether “in the manner of” or through direct quote, his photographic language calls forth other artists’ visions of the world. " — Illés Sarkantyu	Bruno Albizzati Mixed media Bruno Albizzati invests drawing through a research on light and white space, which tends to a haziness, an ambiguity between apparition and disappearance in a movement towards abstraction. Through lines of fracture, of contact or of deletion processed with charcoal powder, he advocates a quest for sight.
Gilles Altieri Painting Gilles Altieri is sure that what always fascinated him in painting is the dialogue between shapes and colours, the quality of materials and the rythm imprinted by the brush stroke, much more than the treated subject.	Vincent Bioulès Painting Vincent Bioules’s figurative painting was strongly affected by his transition from abstraction.“It’s the languedocien landscape that gave me the urge to paint”, he enjoys saying.	Jérôme Bryon Photography “I seek to find the beautiful in the mediocre, the mundane. To photograph is to structure reality and, as a result, to raise it to a new status. I am guided by the desire to save the mediocre, in reviving it with beauty."
Pierre Buraglio Painting The art of Pierre Buraglio oscillates between the standing and the fall. Between the desire to put together and the observation of the fragmentation of the world.	Bernadette Chéné Installation, sculpture Bernadette Chéné creates each of her works for a specific space and in many cases the design of the place brings its own constraints. She works with that environment in mind, starting by recognizing the site, getting a grasp of it, impregnating herself with its atmosphere, carefully building up a mental record.	Jeff Kowatch Painting A new series of scenic abstractions. Vibrant colours, stopped and suspended in the air. Canvases, mostly, in which Kowatch’s amazing glaze skill spreads out, in the tradition of great masters.
Lucien Hervé Photography Lucien Hervé is one of the few French photographers to combine humanist philosophy and architectural thinking. His photographic style, imbued with a certain destitution and a will of abstraction, is very different from his contemporaries.	Jörg Langhans Painting In his research, Jörg Langhans leads to a fragmented vision of the human body, where eye, mouth and hand become recurring elements in his work. In order to make a symbolic reunification, he works on self-portraits where vegetal and organic elements, components of the universal cycle, mingle with the human body.	Sarah Le Guern Photography, video Sarah Le Guern, born in 1981, is a self-taught artist. This allowed her to have the necessary liberty to explore and develop a personal universe detatched from technical or aesthetic referents.
Alexandre Hollan Painting This research is a lifelong experiment dedicated to the continuous deepening of first intuitions. The practice of painting and drawing goes along with the artist’s questioning, an endless quest to create the pattern : the trees he meets every summer in the South of France and the still lives arranged in his studio.	David Décamp Mixed media, drawing... David Décamp questions insatiably man, nature and their sometimes destructive relationship through his sculptures, installations and drawings.	Astrid de la Forest Painting, lithography / engraving Astrid de La Forest uses a number of engraving techniques. Her subjects are mainly taken from nature, landscapes, mountains and trees without neglecting some incursions into the animal world.
Jean-Bernard Métais Installation, sculpture Métais’ public art is both visual and conceptual. It is a specific response to each place, to each given situation. His artistic approach to sculpture begins with a formal construction, based on an interpretation of context, and responds to the location’s physicality, its urban and architectural setting.	Jean-Pierre Le Bars Painting Since 1994, he conducts a resarch combining painting and volumes. The geometric or linear patterns growing into it, the importance granted to rythms and visual perception make his work in the lineage of constructed art.	Beth Reisman Painting, drawing The wood grain is utilized, an internal history of the tree, as a parallel to our own interior lives. While the paintings are abstract, without over narrative, they contain dialogues and exude persona.
Guy De Malherbe Painting Guy de Malherbe is one of those painters who has the ambition to make the reality as visible as to make the painting alive.	Anna Mark Painting, drawing... To appreciate the works of Anna Mark,we must coax the time, make it complit in our contemplation, immerse ourselves in this mysterious world of pure froms, where the mind can, at leisure take flight.	Caribaï Painting Caribaï studied fine arts in France, Italy and in Brussels. The artist displays sensitive and contemplative work through installations and paintings. Her work is inspired by natural elements, revealing influences that have come from Japan, her native country.
Alain Veinstein Painting Alain Veinstein est un écrivain, peintre et poète français, lauréat du prix Mallarmé et du Grand Prix de poésie de l’Académie française, ainsi qu’un animateur et producteur d’émissions de radio.	Philippe Borderieux Painting, drawing... Né en 1952 à Bourges. Vit et travaille à Paris. Diplômé de l’école normale de Cachan. Ancien professeur à l’école des Beaux-Arts de Caen, il enseigne le dessin au Mobilier national et aux manufactures nationales des Gobelins, de Beauvais, et de la Savonnerie.
