Manifeste de l'Art Fragmental.<\/p>

La peinture Fragmentale est n\u00e9e de la constatation suivante : que reste-t-il\u00a0aujourd'hui, au XXIe si\u00e8cle, \u00e0 changer dans le rapport \u00e0 l\u2019\u0153uvre\u00a0?<\/p>

Dans notre monde actuel, tout change, tout est en mouvement et en relation, rien n'est immuable. Pourquoi alors, l\u2019\u0153uvre, et particuli\u00e8rement la Peinture, ne serait-elle pas ainsi ?\u00a0<\/p>

L\u2019Art Fragmental est n\u00e9 d'une rencontre entre deux univers artistiques : celui de Xavier Llongueras, artiste prot\u00e9iforme qui a invent\u00e9 la mosa\u00efque magn\u00e9tique, et celui de Patrice Palacio, artiste peintre qui, depuis longtemps, pixellise la surface de ses tableaux pour les faire \u00e9crans achromes.<\/p>

Les deux univers se percutent et fusionnent : ils font \u00e9merger une cr\u00e9ation autonome. Ils fondent une \u0153uvre plastique qui mixe la mosa\u00efque, la peinture, les forces fondamentales, la relation\u00a0et le pixel autour d\u2019un d\u00e9nominateur partag\u00e9 : le fragment.<\/p>

L'Art Fragmental est un pont qui enjambe l\u2019\u00e8re moderne et l'\u00e8re contemporaine. Nous sommes post.<\/p>

La filiation de la peinture fragmentale prend ses origines dans le cubisme o\u00f9 l'on ne peignait pas ce que l'on voyait mais o\u00f9 l'on peignait ce que l'on savait des choses.<\/p>

Dans l'Art Fragmental, l\u2019artiste donne \u00e0 voir le processus de manifestation du r\u00e9el : d\u00e9construction et reconstruction incessante de l\u2019image par le spectateur.<\/p>

Cet art fait jaillir de fa\u00e7on concr\u00e8te la trame, la grille qui tisse notre mat\u00e9rialit\u00e9.\u00a0<\/p>

Artiste et observateur ne font qu\u2019un, puisqu'ils sont pris tous deux dans ce champ.<\/p>

L'unit\u00e9 est au centre et \u00e0 la limite. Chaque fragment participe au tout. Chaque fragment questionne le seuil d\u2019appr\u00e9ciation de l\u2019ensemble. Espace et temps sont confondus et convoqu\u00e9s.<\/p>

Pour la premi\u00e8re fois, le spectateur peut avoir une action directe sur l\u2019oeuvre : il peut en modifier la g\u00e9om\u00e9trie, l'apparence, la forme et son expression . L\u2019\u0153uvre devient mall\u00e9able et pr\u00e9hensile. Par la possibilit\u00e9 d\u2019intervention, elle incarne la puissance de l'abstraction concr\u00e8te.<\/p>

La peinture fragmentale est une revendication de libert\u00e9 ludique. Il n'y a pas de colle ou de liant entre support et fragments. C'est une force naturelle qui maintient la coh\u00e9rence de l'image : la force magn\u00e9tique, une des quatre forces fondamentales de l\u2019univers.<\/p>

La notion de support est totalement\u00a0remise en question. Le tableau et son image peuvent se retrouver organis\u00e9s \/ d\u00e9sorganis\u00e9s\u00a0sur diff\u00e9rents\u00a0supports horizontaux, verticaux ou inclin\u00e9s en m\u00eame temps. Les possibles sont infinis. Il n'y a plus de cadre et c'est le spectateur\u00a0qui, \u00e0 son tour, devient fragment car il vient nourrir\u00a0l'image qui miraculeusement redevient visible et tout \u00e0 fait intelligible. \u00a0<\/p>

Mais cette recherche artistique a un but ultime : interroger le r\u00e9el et essayer \u00e0 travers le vide cr\u00e9\u00e9 entre chaque fragment de laisser entrapercevoir la v\u00e9rit\u00e9 nue. L'univers entier est compos\u00e9 de fragments. L\u2019Art Fragmental est univers.<\/p>

A l'image de l'atome et de ses \u00e9lectrons, o\u00f9 le vide fondamental cr\u00e9\u00e9 toute chose, tout n'est que vide et attraction, tout n'est que vide et images. C'est un art de la faille, de l'interstice et\u00a0de\u00a0l\u2019\u00e9mergence.<\/p>

L'Art Fragmental ne se limite pas \u00e0 la peinture, il m\u00e9tamorphose la sculpture, la photographie, la musique. Rien ne lui est \u00e9tranger car la notion de fragments est depuis toujours la voie de la nature, la voix de l'humaine condition. Nous pensons \u201dfragmentalement\u201d, notre vie est compos\u00e9e de fragments, de sensations et de souvenirs.<\/p>

\u00a0Le monde qui nous entoure est un immense ensemble de fragments qui font sens.<\/p>

Manifesto of Fragmental Art.<\/strong><\/p>

Fragmental painting arises from a fundamental question: what, in the 21st century, still remains to be transformed in our relationship to the artwork?<\/p>

In a world defined by constant movement, interaction, and transformation, where nothing is fixed, why should the artwork, and painting in particular, remain immutable?<\/p>

Fragmental Art was born from the encounter between two artistic universes: that of Xavier Llongueras, a polymorphous artist and inventor of magnetic mosaic, and that of Patrice Palacio, a painter who has long been fragmenting and pixelating pictorial surfaces, transforming them into achromatic screens.<\/p>

From this collision emerges an autonomous form of creation. Mosaic, painting, fundamental forces, relational dynamics, and the pixel converge around a shared core: the fragment.<\/p>

Fragmental Art forms a bridge between the modern and the contemporary. We are post.<\/p>

Rooted in Cubism\u2014where one painted not what was seen but what was known\u2014fragmental painting reveals the very process through which reality manifests itself. The image is continuously deconstructed and reconstructed by the viewer.<\/p>

This art makes visible the underlying grid, the structural weave from which material reality is composed. Artist and viewer become inseparable, equally immersed in this field of forces.<\/p>

Unity exists both at the center and at the threshold. Each fragment contributes to the whole while simultaneously questioning its limits. Space and time collapse and are activated together.<\/p>

For the first time, the viewer may act directly upon the artwork\u2014altering its geometry, appearance, form, and expression. The artwork becomes malleable, tactile, and alive. Through intervention, it embodies the power of concrete abstraction.<\/p>

Fragmental painting asserts a playful freedom. No adhesive binds fragment to support; coherence arises from a natural force, magnetism, one of the four fundamental forces of the universe.<\/p>

The notion of the support itself is radically challenged. Image and painting may be assembled or disassembled across horizontal, vertical, or inclined planes simultaneously. The frame disappears. The viewer, in turn, becomes a fragment, feeding the image until it re-emerges, miraculously coherent and intelligible.<\/p>

Ultimately, Fragmental Art seeks to question reality itself\u2014to allow, through the void between fragments, a glimpse of naked Truth. The universe is composed of fragments. Fragmental Art is universal.<\/p>

Like the atom and its electrons, where fundamental emptiness gives rise to all things, everything is void and attraction, void and image. Fragmental Art is an art of fracture, interstice, and emergence.<\/p>

Extending beyond painting, it transforms sculpture, photography, and music. Nothing lies outside it, for fragmentation has always been the language of Nature and the condition of being human. We think in fragments; our lives are composed of fragments of sensation and memory.<\/p>

The world itself is an immense constellation of fragments that generate meaning.

Xavier Llongueras est un artiste francais, principalement concentr\u00e9 sur la cr\u00e9ation de mosa\u00efque et de design durable. N\u00e9 dans le sud de la France, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 influenc\u00e9 et fascin\u00e9 d\u00e8s son plus jeune \u00e2ge par la tradition de la mosa\u00efque \"trencadis\", ou \"style Gaudi\" . Il a reli\u00e9 l'art \u00e0 l'\u00e9cologie pour que son travail soit ressenti de mani\u00e8re fondamentalement naturelle, sans aspiration uniquement esth\u00e9tique. En vingt ans de carri\u00e8re bas\u00e9 \u00e0 Los Angeles, il a eu l'opportunit\u00e9 de collaborer avec de nombreux artistes du monde du spectacle et du cin\u00e9ma, et de travailler sur des projets d'\u00e9co-design commercial et r\u00e9sidentiel, artistique, paysagiste et sur l'installation de mosa\u00efques dans le monde.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

Xavier Llongueras is an artist, concentratred foremostly on mosaic creation and sustainable design. Born in the south of France he was stylistically influenced and fascinated by the \"trencadis\" mosaic or \"Gaudi style\" at an early age. He has come to fuse art and ecology in a way that feels inherently natural and is unassumingly beautiful. A twenty year career in Los Angeles has afforded him the opportunity to collaborate with a lot of artists from cinema and show business, and creative minds of our time, and to work in projects including commercial and residential eco-design, fine art, landscape and mosaic installation all over the world.<\/span><\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
