An unclassifiable French painter and seeker of a new beauty, Pierre Marie Brisson presents his canvases like promises of happiness. Revisiting classical themes (flowers, portraits, dancers), he paints a world of balance dominated - seemingly - by beauty and serenity. There are numerous nods to art history. The magic of textures transforms surfaces into the passing of time. It is certainly through the evocative power of his fresco-like technique that the painter instills doubt and meditation, leading us straight to the irony of happy moments destined to disappear. Writer Pierre Combescot and New York art critic Donald Kuspit explore this third part of the painter's work.
