Frédéric Poincelet

Sep 17, 2011 - Nov 10, 2011

The galerie Catherine Putman hosts the first monographic exhibition of ¹ó°ù×™»å×™°ù¾±³¦ Poincelet. The gallery recently presented him in a oneman show at the Salon du dessin contemporain in the Carrousel du Louvre in March 2010, and exhibited his works in the group exhibition « Oh cet Echo », held in September 2009. ¹ó°ù×™»å×™°ù¾±³¦ Poincelet proclaims drawing as a practice in itself.

He is the author of comic books such as Mon bel amour or Essai de sentimentalisme (ego comme x editors). He has published a compendium of drawings, Po×™sie (cinquiטme couche editors) and a book somewhere in between both genres : Une relecture (ego comme x editors). His passion for all kinds of drawings gives birth at early age to his own publishing structure, Lune Produck, which will publish for ten years Bruno Richard, Franck Garcia, Donato Di Nunno and himself... He later collaborates as a drawer with ego comme x editors, Bang ! magazine and Beaux-Arts magazine. 

In order to give the drawing its righteous place, which would be according to him, a full-fledged art and subject, he created in collaboration with Isabelle Boinot, ¹ó°ù×™»å×™°ù¾±³¦ Fleury, Emmanuelle Pidoux and St×™phane Prigent, the ¹ó°ù×™»å×™°ù¾±³¦ magazine collective, which releases on Internet since 2004 daily online drawing galleries and four magazine issues up to date with drawings of more than 50 artists. 

¹ó°ù×™»å×™°ù¾±³¦ Poincelet works on old papers, drawing horizontal and vertical lines that will give his creation the setting for the figurative part, highlighted with Tipp-Ex. Doing so, he asserts his regrets, as he seeks for a perfect representation in his drawings. This perfection is staged in his drawn women’s bodies, voluntary playing with erotic and/or pornographic clich×™s, as well as with the female figure, a bottomless pit of beauty’s representations. His drawings are made as he draws. Out of there the unexpected and the mysterious emerges.
