Pierre Dunoyer's Recent Works at Galerie Farideh Cadot
Between January 21 and March 24, 2012, Pierre Dunoyer, born in 1949, displayed twenty new artworks at Galerie Farideh Cadot in Paris, following his earlier show at Galerie Blondeau in Geneva in 2009. The exhibition featured ten large acrylic paintings from 2011, with dimensions up to 170 x 150 cm, in addition to ten near-square pieces (61 x 60 cm) made with oil pastels in vibrant colors like red, yellow, blue, green, and brown. He also presented five pencil drawings that explored different line types, such as curved and zigzag. The titles of the paintings reflect their main colors: Orange, Rouge, Gris, Blanc, Bronze, Marron, Bleu, Mauve, Jaune, and Vert. Dunoyer’s technique uses a monochrome base layered with acrylic gel, creating lively forms that express harmony amid chaos and variation in repetition.
