Alain
Rivière works as painter also on portrait. He develops his
research through different kinds of series. He uses mostly black acryl
on watercolour paper, but also chalk on paper or oil on canvas. His
purpose in each painting is to experience what a human face can be.
The
reduction of mouvement, colour and composition represents for him the
possibility to suggest fragments of interior lives. In this context
outside and inside are in mutual pictorial progress.
On this page you will find some out of the 24 paintings of the series
"Volti", oil on paper, size 50 x 65 cm, which were painted in
2011/2012.
This series is a hommage to the composer Luigi Nono.
