EXPOSITION – JOHN PLATINGS, LA LIGNE ET LE CORPS
PEZENAS
Programme
Exhibition “The Line and the Body” by John Platings :
In the 1970s I studied at the Saint Martins School of Art in London, UK.
At that time I was mainly creating large scale abstract works. After graduation, I participated in various construction projects, in particular the construction of a 17 meter trimaran. After the birth of my children, I decided to leave the UK by boat, to settle with my family in France and unfortunately I had to put my art aside for a while. But for the last 15 years I have been involved in my passion for painting and drawing, especially from live models; as the works presented in this exhibition show, my interest is currently focused on portraits.
Presence of the artist on Fridays 6, 13, 20 and 27 January 2023
