Jean-Paul SCHMITT

Painter

Jean-Paul Schmitt dominates the landscapes of the countryside around Saint-Martin-en-Haut, as he did for his melancholic attics and bucolic interiors. He dominates the oppositions of colours and forms are born to express the quietude of his home, the peace of an interior, a pond sublimated by the snow. He dares the format, the colour, the high pastes to install his subject at a summit, where he wishes our vigilant attention to be attached. He now expresses himself in a series on café interiors that New Yorkers familiar with the Café Society would not have repudiated. Painting reigns. It is powerful. It will delight us for a long time..." Alain VOLLERIN art critic, member of the International Association of Art Critics
