Richard Texier is a painter and sculptor.
He is also a novelist and documentary maker.
But, it is bronze and colors that we are going to talk about today, thanks to two works that he publishes with Gallimard editions.
One, entitled "Quantum animals", and prefaced by the philosopher Michel Onfray, opens the doors to a strange bestiary where hybridity combines with poetry and the imagination to give birth to useful bronze objects - candlesticks, lampposts, cups or trays-.
The other, “Codex”, gives us some codes to understand his art, through seven stories about colors.
The colors of his life, and the colors of life itself, since his art is above all the result of an organic matrix, from the plant or animal world.
Richard Texier
is the guest of Jean-François Cadet.
