WRITINGS OF THE VISIBLE

The explosive and cosmic language of the renowned French artist Dominique Coffignier (b.1956), powerfully totalizing his painting, is synthesized in his engravings and lithographs assuming a grammar that stages plural relationships Static between lines, shapes, planes and colors, in suspensions and unstable balances of dazzling newness. Graffiti, written from the visible, opening onto the invisible to the surface. similar to what the famous poem by António Ramos Rosa suggests: “I write about a wall”. Erasures and amendments in everything that is This is the traditional way of seeing in the West, the connection to reality that in the 20th century abstract art tried to shake.
