Anne, 2008 Oil on canvas. Signed, titled and dated on the back. Oil on canvas. Signed, dated and titled on the reverse. H_250 cm L_200 cm Provenance: - Artcurial sale, Paris, 29 October 2013, lot n°350 - acquired in this sale by the current owner - private collection As by an alchemy of painting corresponding to ? the Alchemy of the verb ?, Philippe Pasqua has got used to? the simple hallucination? He makes monsters and mysteries emerge from the nexus, but in his case hallucination does not consist in substituting visions for reality, but in considering reality in all its reality - independently of idealism, which usually cleanses it up and sometimes even transfigures it into a representation. There is never too much reality in reality, he seems to tell us. And what interests him most is not the smooth, the gum, the embellished, but the herring, the "beauty diapree" of Hopkins, the accidents of the skin, the whims of the light, the disorder of the hair, the strangeness of the expression. Michel Waldberg, "The dazzled ephemeral".
