Pierre Bellot's New Abstract Works Explore Surface and Memory at Art : Concept
Pierre Bellot presents new abstract paintings at Art : Concept gallery, focusing on surface, color, and the interplay of tones. The artist describes the process as instinctual, beginning with chaotic sketches and building layers to achieve a matte, chalky texture. The works include older canvases that have been repainted, revealing pentimenti that expose the painting's history and evolution. Bellot emphasizes the slow, studio-based nature of the work, with some paintings remaining unresolved for weeks. The exhibition is currently on view at Art : Concept in Paris.
