Philippe Roussel
“Philippe Roussel was born in Nîmes ( France) in 1963. French artist painter. Member of the ‘Taylor Foundation for Art’ in Paris , member of the group ‘les Contemporains Parallèles’ and referenced in the ‘ Guide Akoun Quotation Painters ‘. Gives painting classes to other artist who are looking for a semi figurative technique’
Philippe uses acrylic to create his work as it suits his vigorous style and speed. As a younger artist he mainly painted figuratively, but as his painting progressed, he started to move more towards abstract painting.
Philippe paintings constantly try to create the connection between his experience (or the trace that will be remembered) and what the beholder perceives. His aim with his technique is convey emotion through paint. The painting speak (probably more than others) of the artist’s history, his memories, his emotional sense of archeology; it begins to talk about the story of the man who discovered it as soon as he could open his eyes: memories overlap, emotions contradict, the events overlap, and landscapes intertwine.
Philippe Roussel’s painting is today represented in several known galleries in France, the UK and USA.
