Which style touches you particularly, why? What does it provoke in you?
Like Jérémie Anguera, the gallerist from Toulouse, I am also into semi-abstract art. I like that it gives you a scenario, for example, but the rest is open to your own imagination, it makes you to use you own fantasy and lets you to be creative.
An artist from Carré d'artistes whose work you particularly like?
That is a hard question. I think that each of our artists has so many different artworks and that each of these artworks has its own valuable and fascinating facets, and it also depends on my mood. If I am more in a playful mood, I would say Nai, if I want to escape the reality, I would say Ivica Petras, if I need some new impressions in my everyday life, I would say Patricia Frida.
If you had to describe Carré d'artistes in three words, which would you choose? Why or why not?
Unique, of course.
Open.
Connected.
I love the whole concept, it is really unique and an absolutely great idea. With Carré d’artistes I always have the feeling that not only our doors are open but also our hearts and our minds. I have so many different artists and customers, and everybody is welcome. I think that we, in the galleries, are a connection between the artist and the customer. And until now, I haven’t seen a lot of the world but being part of the Carré d’artist network also gives me the feeling of being connected to all the other galleries around the world.
Rather small or large formats? For what reason?
Small formats. I like to break the boundaries of one big artwork and create out of many small formats an artwork itself.
Why do you think art is important?
I was asked to choose a theme for my collection but to be honest I am not into music, or sport or something else. My passion is art. Art is so essential in our society and history, it has always been here and it will always be, it is an international, timeless way to express ourselves. It’s an opportunity to escape the world and to find a new one. It’s freedom, it’s impartial politically, it’s beautiful, ugly and so much more. And the one thing I like the most about art … it’s emotional, art brings out memories and emotions and that’s why art is important.
