About this title

Synopsis:

This is both palpable and unfathomable, visible and unreal, pathetic and generous, in a word, incredible. Yanny Hureaux, The Ardennes 7/11/08 When the poet's words echo the painter's hand, the conversation is established, fluid and complementary. The richness of the exhibition catalog Extases is in these letters that the poet and the painter André Velter & Ernest Pignon-Ernest have forged together harmoniously. Ariane Dollfus Life 7/17/08 Everything is inextricably involved in the drawings by Ernest Pignon-Ernest that make up this exceptional book. The body and mind. Visible and hidden. The here and beyond. Extases: title grabs, called to contemplation, to delight, to fear. Figures and immortalized by the painter of the body have a name: Mary Magdalene, Hildegard of Bingen, Angela of Foligno, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Avila, Marie de l'Incarnation or even Madame Guyon. "They are swooning, delivered, delighted, feverish, languid and pure. They have excess to measure. Ineffable They burn a fire. They are unrestrained or restraint bear depths in heaven." Beautiful opening remarks. It is signed André Velter. Velter, the author of life, dancing , Extreme Love or The Cabaret of the ephemeral is indeed one of the contemporary poets who will most surely plain speech, illustration and, more generally, the staging. Didier Pobel, Le Dauphiné Libéré 7/21/08 The performances of seven great mystics devised by Ernest Pignon-Ernest have a beauty that captivates. In an economy of means we know it (large white sheet, black chalk and charcoal), this prodigious artist makes palpable incarnation of mystical love and his dizziness. "The body is a jetty that is hard to land. / The body is a vessel in a dark glare, lightning, high light. / The body is a sail fly the hurricane." Powerful and sensual Andre Velter texts contribute to the elevation of a project masterfully accomplished. Geneviève Welcomme / Cross / September 18, 2008
