Avoir un peu dé théorie pour mieux comprendre la peinture permet d’aborder cette belle discipline avec beaucoup plus d’aisance et de conviction. On commence à comprendre ce que l’on fait. Ici une petite analyse des différents contrastes utilisés par Joan Mitchell dans une de ses peintures pour créer un équilibre.#culturepeinture #Joan Mitchell #artabstrait #artmoderne #joanmitchell #inspirationartistique
⸻🌀 Suite de la vidéo d’hier — vous étiez nombreux à attendre la partie sur les spirales dans la structure !C’est un passage fascinant : quand on comprend comment les intégrer, tout le tableau s’ordonne différemment.C’est l’un des principes essentiels du langage pictural que j’enseigne depuis des années.👉 Pour aller plus loin et accéder à tout ce savoir en détail, le lien est dans la bio.#culturepeinture #composition #nombre d’or #spirale #harmonie #peinture #dessin #art #artmoderne
🎨 La composition, ce n’est pas un hasard.Beaucoup pensent qu’elle se fait au feeling, avec le cœur et les émotions…Mais en réalité, les grands peintres — classiques, modernes ou contemporains — ont toujours structuré leurs tableaux sur des bases précises : le nombre d’or, la géométrie, les lignes de force.Avant même de peindre, on pose une structure.C’est sur cette grille invisible que l’image vient se construire, que l’équilibre et l’harmonie prennent forme.👉 Si tu veux comprendre comment les maîtres composaient leurs œuvres et apprendre à le faire toi-même, je t’explique tout dans ma formation.Le lien est dans la bio.#composition #peinture #artclassique #nombreador #culturepeinture #formationartistique #dessinpeinture #artiste#culturepeinture #histoiredelart #artmoderne
🎨 Deuxième partie – “Les Romains passant sous le joug” de Charles GleyreOn continue l’analyse de ce tableau incroyable de Charles Gleyre, une œuvre aussi puissante sur le plan symbolique que sur le plan compositionnel.Ce qui frappe ici, c’est la rigueur classique mêlée à une profonde sensibilité dramatique : chaque geste, chaque regard raconte la tension entre l’humiliation et la dignité. Gleyre parvient à transformer un épisode historique en une véritable leçon de peinture : tout est construit, mesuré, orchestré.Regardez bien comment il organise l’espace, comment les lignes guident notre œil, comment la lumière fait dialoguer les corps… rien n’est laissé au hasard.C’est une peinture qui enseigne à voir, à comprendre comment la beauté naît de la structure et du sens.👉 Dis-moi en commentaire ce qui te frappe le plus dans cette scène.Et si tu veux apprendre à lire les tableaux comme un peintre, suis la page Culture Peinture – on y explore ensemble les secrets du langage pictural.#CulturePeinture #CharlesGleyre #PeintureClassique #AnalyseDeTableau #HistoireDeLart #LangagePictural #BeauxArts #ArtClassique

L’Olympia de Manet est un des grand tournant de l’histoire de la peinture. En effet quand Edouard Manet peint ce tableau en 1863 il pressent que c’est le moment de quitter le modelé ( principe de représentation du volume ) vieux de 400 ans. En faisant cela il libère la couleur ! #manet #L’Olympia#culturepeinture #histoiredelart  #peinture  #impressionisme #monet
Le monde des formes est un monde codé avec des règles et une manière particulière d’observer. Le peintre s’intéresse au monde des formes car elles sont la matière première du peintre.#culturepeinture #peinture #inspirationartistique #artabstrait #histoiredelart #peinturemoderne
Qu’est-ce que la composition ? Comment on compose ? Savez-vous qu’il existe des outils concrets pour composer ou vous composez uniquement au feeling ?#composition#culturepeinture #peinture #artmoderne #artabstrait
Nombre d’or suite. Analyse de tableau et théorie du nombre d’or simplifié.#composition #peinture théorie # Culfturepeinture #Sam Francis #nombre d’or
Dans ce cours extrait, je vous montre comment utiliser le nombre d'or en peinture. L'idée est de poser d'abord les mesures de la structure orthogonale pour obtenir des mesures basée sur le nombre d'or à partir des quelles ont va élaborer la construction sous-jacente à la peinture.
History and origins of the golden ratio, extract from this summer's course. Do you know how the golden ratio is used in painting? It goes far beyond the 2/3 and 1/3 rule, which is an oversimplification of this compositional principle. The golden ratio is used not only by the classics, but also by modern and contemporary artists. Joan Mitchell, Mark Rothko and many others have used it. I'll give you more details in future videos. Good day and happy painting to you all.#Golden number #painting #Culturepainting #Composition # Abstract painting #Picasso #Rubens #De Kooningwww.culturepeinture.com
Are painting in general, and contemporary painting in particular, subject to rules and codes or not? What's your opinion?
Extract from the summer course. Example of spatial ambiguity.
Extract from the course on spatial ambiguity. The complete recordings of the course (16 hours) are now available. A unique opportunity to gain insight into the major aesthetic principles underlying pictorial language and its evolution from the classics to the modern and contemporary. Link to description ⭐️
Matisse's influence on the development of modern and contemporary painting is often overlooked. He was the first painter to experiment with new ways of representing depth, influenced by Japanese prints. This gave a new lease of life to contemporary Western painting, which finally freed itself from classical models of representation. We know Matisse for his elegant style, his apparent simplicity and his mastery of color, but we forget to mention that he was a true pioneer in the research that revolutionized modern and contemporary painting. Rothko and Zao Wou-Ki have both paid tribute to him for this!
Here's an extract from this summer's workshop on spatial ambiguity. The importance of Japanese prints is not limited to their stylistic contribution to Japanese art. They revolutionized the concept of depth in 20th century painting, notably through the work of Matisse and his famous painting "L'Atelier rouge". I hope you enjoy this extract.#Culturepeinture #Matisse #estampe #atelier rouge #peinturecontemporaine #musée #fondationlouisvuitton

In the brightness of his studio, Soulages lays down the black with familiar precision, then withdraws for a moment: the canvas speaks, he listens. Between mastery and doubt, he questions the light buried in the material, a humble researcher who lets himself be surprised by what he has just created.#CulturePeinture #PierreSoulages #AtelierDeLumière #GesteNoir #ArtEnQuête
Beyond the appalling chaos, Picasso's genius lies in the rhythmic structure that orchestrates his masterpiece, "Guernica". The composition is skilfully organized around a large central triangle whose apex is the lamp, projecting a harsh light that sculpts the forms and dramatizes the scene. This pyramidal structure, like the pediment of an ancient temple, stages the tragedy. The eye is guided by a precise visual cadence, traveling from the anguished figures on the right to the grieving mother and child on the left, via the wounded horse in the center. Horizontal and vertical lines respond to each other, creating a secret tension and balance in the midst of devastation. It is this pulsation, this skilfully orchestrated visual rhythm, that channels the violence of the scene and gives "Guernica" its timeless, universal power.Would you like a full analysis?

In "Grand nu couché" (1935), Matisse applies the lesson of Japanese prints: calligraphic contours, vibrant flat tints, cut-off framing. What do you think of this work? Leave us a comment! #grandnucouché #henrimatisse #ukiyoinfluence #artmoderne #dialogueestouest
An unexpected streak in the black paste, a reflection that captures the light differently... and everything changes. The work is no longer fabricated; it reveals itself. The painting leaves its creator to exist on its own, imposing its own evidence, its own light. It is the birth of a presence.#pierresoulages #pointdebascule #gestecreatif #lumiereetmatiere #outrenoir

Live from Art'Basel, analysis of a painting by Kenneth Noland. A founding member of the Washington Color School, which included Sam Gilliam, Morris Louis and Alma Thomas, Kenneth Noland was instrumental in shaping the language of post-war abstraction in the United States. His experimental approach to form, material and color gave rise to radical works that redefined painting.

Beneath its air of gestural chaos, Joan Mitchell's Hudson River reveals a rigorous composition. The underlying orthogonal structure organizes the space, while a rhythmic dynamic, akin to the flow of a river, gives life to her canvas. Each gesture, each interval, obeys a precise logic: that of the golden ratio, discreetly at work in this explosion of color.#joanmitchell #hudsonriver #artabstrait #nombredor #culturepainting
Joan Mitchell, a dazzling figure of abstract expressionism, has made color a language in its own right. From her New York beginnings to her European influence, her career is that of a woman who imposed her voice in a male-dominated environment, without ever softening her gesture or diluting her vision.Painting was, for her, a vital necessity. Her abstraction, far from being cold or intellectual, is visceral, lyrical and inhabited. A work in which the intimate becomes universal.#JoanMitchell #ExpressionismAbstract #ArtContemporain #AbstractionLyrique #FemmesArtistes #PeintureModerne
At Eternity's Gate (2018)-a film that makes you feel the light, the madness, the genius. #vangogh #peinture
Joan Mitchell presents her first abstract canvases, marked by striking contrasts and assertive gestures: a veritable visual exploration that redefines the codes of painting. #joanmitchell #artabstract
Figure and City marks a turning point in Joan Mitchell's work: her last figurative canvas before she fully embraced lyrical abstraction. Les Échos d'un monde tangible (Echoes of a Tangible World) can still be seen, but is soon swallowed up by the gestural élan and chromatic fulgurances that would come to define her style. #joanmitchell #peinturemoderne #abstractionlyrique #histoiredelart #expressionnismeamericain
In Rothko, every surface becomes a passageway - from inside to outside, from matter to light.The gesture is slow, artisanal.Emotion comes from a silent tension, not from spectacular effect.#MarkRothko #PeintureAbstraite #ArtModerne #Sensibilité #LumièreEtCouleur
"Saint John the Baptist with the ram" - Caravaggio (circa 1602)In this powerful work, Caravaggio breaks with the traditional depiction of Saint John the Baptist. Far from the usual asceticism, the young saint is shown in a meditative, sensual pose, bathed in light and shadow. The ram, an enigmatic companion, symbolizes both sacrifice and tamed wilderness. A scene where mysticism and realism meet with intensity.#caravaggio #saintjeanbaptiste #artbaroque #clairobscur #peintureitalienne

Willem de Kooning, a major figure in Abstract Expressionism, left his mark on 20th-century art with his powerful, gestural compositions. This movement, born in the United States in the 1940s, values raw emotion and spontaneous gesture. De Kooning brought to it a unique tension between abstraction and figuration, notably through his famous series of women.How do you feel about Willem de Kooning's work?#willemdekooning #expressionismabstract #artmodern 1TP5Gestual painting
