Image bank and Data base

​​français

 

After the revolutions and the Tiger's rock'n'roll year, the situation returns to law and order.
Rivalry and fights in the left wing parties. (Where is Strauss-Kahn ?).
If Marine Le Pen were vegetarian would she be Brigitte Bardot (who's not really veggy) ?
The question of public transport system in the region "Ile-de-France". Strikes again ? Accidents ?
Or commuters blocking trains ?

The "painting news" collection can be seen as an image bank  and data base or a collection of 'historic' documents.

Documents which illustrations  of recent events and fresh history. 

Here are two examples of exploitations of these documents 

The religious issues between 1994 and 2012

The arrest of an islamist in France, fundamentalist hindu, Bosnian serb concentration camp ... Mino Knokaert, activist for the right to die with dignity...

Game and play : 1997-2007

 Kasaparov and deep blue, PS4 game console, the Bratz doll, "Funny games" (movie), Euro millions....

MICHEL BRIAT

I'm a french painter.
Since 1995, I do a painting each day, in relation with world news. 

Today this represents 10 500 pieces.
My subject is newspaper pictures, in acrylic or tempera monochromes, on a sketchbook paper of 14x18 cm
(5,5 x 7 inches). 
Each season has a new color, 4 for a year, that makes 68 shades for a 17 years project.

Je suis peintre, je vis en France.
Depuis 1995, je réalise une peinture

chaque jour, en relation avec les actualités. 

Aujourd'hui cela représente 10 500 pièces.
Mon sujet c'est de peindre les images

de la presse, en tant que monochromes en acrylique ou gouache, sur un carnet de 14x18 cm (5,5 x 7 pouces). 
A chaque saison je crée une nouvelle 

couleur, 4 par année, ce qui fait

 84nuances pour un projet de 21 ans.
