Jean Edelbluth reports that he was first moved by words, necessarily inscribing his poetic research within his artistic research. A banner, says the dictionary, is a feudal military flag, a rallying standard. A symphony is a collection of sounds, of noises forming a harmony. Do these definitions enlighten us? Perhaps!
Let us now ask the artist: influenced by American abstraction and minimalist thought, encouraged by the contemporary revival of geometric abstract painting (particularly British), Jean Edelbuth says that he remains attached to the grid as a means of "composing, making colors sing, suspending the expression of joy contained in forms." He also states that Hans Arp is never far away.
“I have always loved looking at landscapes. I grew up in the countryside, and the layout of the fields is imprinted on me. Collage is a gateway to what seems to be painting for me today: constructing a phrasing of lines and shapes that call for contemplation. The colored fields return to the canvas.”
And then Jean Edelbluth adds: "I have the strong impression that art must proceed from joy more than any other ambition. It is the immediacy of the composition that imposes itself first. The poetics of movement follows. I do not know how to account for coherence. It is a quest. My faith is the driving force."
• Outdoors: choose locations where people take a walk and/or where there is a lot of foot traffic: in the centre of the town, near a school, in a public garden or along a walking trail... And if possible, on flat ground!
• Indoors: reception hall, office, waiting room, dining room, meeting room - choose the best-lit space.
CAUTION: If the space where you are displaying the exhibition is slightly damp, we recommend purchasing eight simple frames of the same size (50 x 70 cm) to protect the prints.
The papers we have chosen for printing our exhibitions meet two essential criteria, among others: beautiful colour rendering and durability.
• Exhibitions intended for outdoor display are printed on high-quality 130gsm blue-backed paper.
• For exhibitions intended for indoor display, we have chosen a 550gsm semi-rigid paper to which we attach a simple hanging system. These panels can therefore be hung on a single nail or framed if they are to be displayed in a slightly damp location.
For outdoor displays, our poster formats have been chosen to best suit “election” billboards:
• Large outdoor format (84 x 119 cm) for maximum impact. With one poster per billboard, you will need eight in total.
• Small outdoor format (63 x 93 cm) so that two posters can be placed on the same billboard... meaning you only need to install four billboards.
• Indoor exhibition (50 x 70 cm): 8 prints to hang on 5 linear metres of free wall space.
