ALAIN CHEVRETTE

What better way to get away from it all than in a garden, where you can walk barefoot in the grass, admire the delicate flowers, smell their fragrance, read a nice book and enjoy an aromatic drink in complicity with nature? This summer, I invite you to join me on this 'close' journey, thanks to the work of 5 contemporary artists. In their secret gardens, they create, sow and share. The "Jardins" exhibition will be a mix of singularities, a surprising and serene interlude in the heart of Lyon. A mix of the gallery's artists and two guests. Unique because they have all worked on new works. Alain CHEVRETTE was born in Lyon in 1947 and has had an extraordinary career there. The painter is continuing the incessant observation of nature that he began ten years ago. He uses a broad palette of colours. Reds, pinks, oranges and even a superb mauve make appearances. Dark colours rub shoulders with lighter ones in a measured, organised anarchy. From this ferment springs harmony, gentleness and balance, as if Alain Chevrette had decided, on the scale of a very fine career, to breathe order into the chaos of today's world. For our exhibition, he will surprise us with a return to figuration. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
