Portrait of Richard Texier

Biography

After a carefree childhood in the wilds of the Poitevin marches of western France,^[3] Richard Texier settles in Paris in 1973 where he studies art and architecture (graduate l’École spéciale d'architecture), he finishes his formal education with a doctorate in Plastic Art at the Sorbonne.^[4]

He leaves for New York City in 1979,^[5] where he initiates a nomadic strategy of creation which he names "Nomadic Workshops"...this strategy subsequently enables him to multiply his workshop space to venues all over the world:^[6]

• 1992: House of Culture, Moscow, Russia^[7]
• 1993: Manufacture des œillets, Ivry-sur-Seine, France ^[8]
• 1998: Villa Noailles, Hyères, France ^[9]
• 2002: Starrett-Lehigh Building, Chelsea, New York City ^[10]
• 2003: Phare de Cordouan (Cordouan Lighthouse), France ^[11]
• 2004: Liu Foundry, Shanghai, China ^[12]
• 2012: Rangoon, Burma ^[13]

He exposes at the FIAC in Paris for the first time in 1982 with the Claudine Bréguet gallery.^[14] In 1989 the French state commission a series of tapistries on the theme of the 1789 Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the French Revolution. The works are presented at the Bastille Opera,^[15] Arch at La Defence,^[16] the National Assembly, Aubusson museum,^[16] the European Parliament and at the Luxembourg museum in Paris.^[17]

His most recent works include Chaosmos 2009, Pantheo Vortex 2011, and Elastogénèse 2013.

Chaosmos ^[18]

Deux tableaux de la série Chaosmos de Richard Texier

• « In 2009 that Richard Texier began a series of special paintings entitled Chaosmos, this ongoing work which comprises of more than a hundred paintings has been continued parallel to other more recent works such as Pantheo Vortex. The word Chaosmos was first used in 1939 by James Joyce in Finnegans Wake whereby he states that the universe cannot function without embracing the concept of chaos.Moreover the cosmos and chaos are indissociably united in a vast continuum of order and disorder. At the beginning of the 1970s Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari revisited the Joycian cosmos, notably in their "Mille Plateaux" affirming that "chaos is not the opposite of rhythm, it is more the center of all centers". It is literally this center of all centers that Texier, as an artistic astrophysisist attempts to define, and restore. Chaosmos is none other than a celebration of energy as a concentration of the history of the world. (…) Texier conceives each painting as a means of condensing the diversity of life itself.»

Zéno Bianu « une autre entrée dans le cœur du monde », p. 52, Art press No. , "Supplément Richard Texier", July–August 2014, ISSN 0245-5676

Pantheo-Vortex ^[19]

Images issues de la série Pantheo-Vortex de Richard Texier

• « Pantheo Vortex is a collection of paintings begun in 2011. The series is based on the principle of The Cathedral of Rouen by Monet, or by the limitless modern artistic propositions of a conceptual nature. The paintings in this series are both photos and paintings. The image is obtained by using a digital graphic palette and aims to confuse by placing the real in the false and vice versa. The intention is not to trouble or perplex but rather to inspire and encourage the viewer to look beyond simple appearances. The choice of "vortex" in the naming of the work is explicit. According to the dictionary definition a vortex is a human pictoral interpretation which enables the viewer, via IT, to formulate a description of the infinite, and that of mystery.» (…) »

Citation de Paul Ardenne « faire de l’essentiel une œuvre d’art à la mesure », p. 14, in Art press No. , "Supplément Richard Texier", July–August 2014, ISSN 0245-5676

• « Ce projet [Pantheo-Vortex] est une stratégie de création pour aborder le mystère et la dimension magique de l’existence. (…) L’art est le seul espace non dogmatique, non religieux où il semble possible d’aborder un sujet qui se dérobe, par définition, aux tentatives d’exploration. (…) »

Citation de Richard Texier, p. 12, in Art press No. , "Supplément Richard Texier", July–August 2014, ISSN 0245-5676

Elastogénèse

Elastogénèses In Situ au Parc Montsouris de Paris

• «(…) This new series explores the elasticity of the imaginary, the emptiness of the early times of conciousness and cosmos, where all is real as the world invents itself. I baptised it Elastogénèse as it is firstly an artistic rendering of dreams, Yves Tanguy never called it that even if he used it frequently. It is also a tool, a means of embracing reality. It is very different from the vitual world which attempts to dematerialise reality, Elastogénèse on the contrary chooses matter. It is, however something soft, elastic, in motion and restless. This form of movement exists already in nature, and these natural elements prove in a dazzling manner that the soft is stronger than the hard, and that the proof of their elastic, changable and adaptable nature is finally more elegant than the rigidity of the real.(…) The art world was the first to discover and explore this nature. The sculptures of Arp, the soft watches of Dali, the expansions of Cèsar, and the silicons of Matthew Barney are all intuitive versions I offer a principal of mental resolution, a means of magical thinking.(…)»
