I interpret these phenomena of perception of forms and colors in my way in my paintings.

 

Architecture is also a subject which occupies me.

 

I worked during years for a building firm. The utilitarian architecture nowadays suffers of the same problem as computers. Here also, Mondriaan and the other constructivists showed the road. Rectilinear, oblong, uniform in color, repetitive and essentially bi-dimensional; volumes exist only thanks to the oblong plains which give them forms. The efficiency and the capacity to generate money are infinitely more important than the influence which a building can have on the sensation of reality and history of the individual. The choices of materials are managed by the same criteria. Giant offices are realized in some months and after 40 years are often not even worth being maintained. Demolition is then the only solution. So there is nothing left for future generations. This way Architecture becomes an art very volatile.
