The premise of this work is the opposing history and ideologies of liberty and freedom in the United States of America.

Perroquet vert / Sans titre / Piroche / Iceberg n°5 / Iceberg n°3 / hommage à Rosa Luxembourg
Tumblr media
Le Perroquet vert, 1949, huile sur toile, 110,2 x 140 cm – Musée du Québec, Québec, Canada – Catalogue raisonné de Jean Paul Riopelle, tome 1, pp. 277 et 369
Iceberg n°5
Tes titres figurent, ils figurent et orientent Iceberg Noir Tes titres orientent Perroquet vert, je ne peux que le voir Ton perroquet vert dans l’amas ocre, rouge, marron, vert, caca d’oie, Dans l’amas ocre, sable, sienne, perroquet, caca d’oie, jonquille, brun, Sanguine, sapin, prusse, vert-jaune, sable, vermillon Dans l’amas où le blanc perce neige reflet et dessine Dessine le, les perroquets verts qui dans la jungle Dans le sombre de la jungle capte la lumière rai reflète Dans quelle jungle, vert vert bois, dans quel zoo, dans quelle merde Où se cachent perroquet, sa symphonie Est-ce la symphonie du cacquètement Qu’à la surface craquelée j’entends C’est perroquet l’exotisme de quel Lieu De quel temps Je pense à tes grues Riopelle A tes oiseaux, à ta Rosa, A quel exotisme ton Perroquet vert Picassien ou braquois Répond-il, depuis quel langage Quel apprentissage de quelle répétition ?   Figure-t-il Figures-tu Te figures-tu
from / to  vert / Rosa
Figure-t-il Figures-tu Te figures-tu Iceberg Noir Pour à toi parvenir Dans le blanc, le blanc Qui à la surface Au dessus Ne cessera de s’ajouter Le blanc s’ajoute Comme ponctue Avant d’advenir De tout recouvrir Qu’enfin le blanc existe Et qu’au blanc la couleur Ne fasse que le faire Ressortir Sors De tout temps l’éclat de la neige Qui fond Et tient traduit Quel langage Quelle langue Quelles traces Mystiques
Les monstres des bords blancs des cartes 
Au bord tout au bord des cartes Quand inconnu Quand le territoire était inconnu Pas exploré mais désiré La carte était laissée blanche - telle Mise en scène de Claude Ollier - là où le problème des cartes est toujours celui - des envahisseurs Et dans les bords blancs apparaissaient Des monstres Car au bord des mondes Gardent les mondes de L’interpénétration des mondes Les monstres
Tumblr media
Photo: Archives Yseult Riopelle, Sans titre, 1964. Huile sur toile,  130 × 160 cm
Trait d’union (3)
De Riopelle-Mitchelle Je comprends que le trait d’union est pour toi le blanc Iceberg Noir Pas la toile, le blanc, la toile seule griffure peut l’atteindre C’est le combat pour faire apparaître la neige Telle qu’elle source dans les toiles de Mitchell Alors de la matière que faire, car la matière Iceberg Noir chez toi est couleur Du blanc, du blanc que faire, de la peinture De la matière peinture blanche avalanche que faire De l’épaisseur du matériau, de ton travail au couteau C’est à l’aveugle  retrouver le tracé, la trace, le trait, la figuration, Sous la neige le trait d’union
Danse dans la neige, 1948 Françoise Sullivan
De la danse de Mitchell sur les toiles Riopelle vient, en 1948 a, était Avec Sullivan, Françoise Sullivan Qui ses danse des qures saisons créait Riopelle et Maurice Perron Pour Danse dans la neige Sur le Mont Saint Hilaire Où l’invite Riopelle à danser A la suivre filmer photographier Yseult a deux mois, Françoise Riopelle la tient dans ses bras De la danse de Sullivan à celle de Mitchell Pas à pas de la danse sur neige glacée à l’apprêt plat de la toile Pour, Riopelle, à la neige Nécessaire de revenir Nécessaire de revenir à Saint-Hilaire Dix ans après, Mitchell pour invitée Et Y tracer, Piroche, Y tracer signes Empreintes Dansés dans ses yeux Si souvent
Tumblr media
Piroche, 1976, huile sur toile, 203,3 x 549 cm, quadriptyque – Université de Sherbrooke, Sherbrooke, Québec, Canada
Tumblr media
Iceberg n° 5, 1977, huile sur toile, 200 x 260 cm
Iceberg n°1
un iceberg c’est blanc, et bleu, et transparent, et gris et
immense
Iceberg n°2
je comprends sans comprendre l’absence de couleur la série presque tout en noir et blanc quand je ressens la couleur c’est dès la lumière pas le soleil la lumière dès que les nuages se déplacent jour ou nuit soleil lune ou étoiles quand le soleil ne redevient qu’une étoile comme une autre absente
Iceberg n°3
cette toile c’est Robert le diable à l’envers pour les couleurs et le blanc pas la technique ou alors la technique à l’envers serait de faire miroiter les coup de couteau carrés le bocage l’étroitesse à l’espace dont les règles sont celles physiques et toujours spirituelles de la répétition qui se compose à la composition qui organise le geste
Iceberg n°4
De la nuit noire J’ai ce souvenir enfant Dans le Vercors Dans le Vercors enneigé gelé Dns le Vercors avec Une dizaine d’enfants Et mon grand-père Qui se perd nous perd Nous avons skié toute la journée Et dans la nuit noire sommes rentrés C’est-à-dire Dans la nuit d’un plateau où les nuages Cachaient de la nuit toute lumière Dans la nuit de nos yeux de toute la journée Fatigués de la neige Blanche ou grise, marron et verte Transparente et jaune Une branche de sapin sous la neige l’irise Il y a ce blanc très particulier de la neige tassée Et toutes ces couleurs que les sensations procurent D’une neige légère qui tombe et grise Sur les paupières les joues Devient rouge la neige brûlure De celle qui glisse sous les patins fartés Et wootche wootche wootche De celle qui a fondu regelé fondu Où se posent fleurs flocons qui nuit tombe se laissent prendre intactes sous des mètres encore visibles Celle où trop sont passés bouillie Celle brillante de reflets Il y a l’eau grumeuleuse   Il y a de la neige mon amour
Extrait de Maîtresse-Cherokees de Josée Yvon (une Mitchell canadienne telle que j’imagine que Riopelle aurait pu la rêver)
Impossible. Mitchell ne meurt pas. Elle est de celles qui n'ont rien à perdre, noire évasive d'actes fous, sincères mais dangereux.Mitchell est descendue de la Baie James, sept ans de travail parcimonieux dans un «office» d'une LG2 paralysée, sans bouger, elle attendait, elle était amoureuse. Au printemps du désespoir, les hommes ont changé de camps. La peur l'a accablée très vite. Où est-il cet amant qui l'avait volée? Personne. Elle tremble malade de bière dans le bureau hurlant. Elle a reviré le pupitre sur le nom des gars qu'elle devait dactylographier. Un désert dans ce camp élucidé. Rien... Elle a empoigné la petite dans la main droite, son «mickey» dans la poche gauche. Su' le pouce, pas de bagages, ça dépendrait des lifts... Couchées dans un lit ou sur le bord d'un ruisseau. Est-ce que ça s'appelle un pays? Quinze jours le long du lac à l'Ourse. Se laver sans faire de bruit dans toute la splendeur des cris de forêt, Donna serrée qui halète plus fort que les hululements. Elle lui raconte que tous les moutons blancs sur les vagues douces cahotent bien moins violents que sa petite écume tassée en cris embrasés de désir déferlant. Elles buvaient dans la rivière glacée, jusqu'à ce qu'un vieux garde-chasse surgisse, comme le vieillard à la lanterne... Elles ont fui dans les sous-bois d'un silence consentant, éperdues, des milles jusqu'à l'éclaircie, une petite route de terre... On se rend toujours où l'on focuse aller. «I left a woman waiting». Entra dans la première brasserie, la petite n'est pas servie, elle dort anyway. Une chambre à louer au-dessus de la taverne, couche la petite et redescend boire jusqu'à la fermeture.
Tumblr media
Iceberg n°3, 1977
Rosa critique
L'indépendance de la pensée est pour nous de la plus haute importance. Or, elle ne sera possible que si, abstraction faite de toute calomnie. de tout mensonge, de toute injure, nous accueillons avec gratitude et sans distinction de tendance, les opinions exprimées par des gens qui peuvent se tromper, mais qui n'ont en vue que le salut de notre Parti. Je ne parle pas pour moi, mais d'une façon générale : c'est avec joie qu'on devrait accueillir des idées nouvelles puisqu'elles rafraîchissent un peu le répertoire suranné, routinier de notre propagande.

Les grues blanches De ton Hommage à Soleil Rose, Iceberg Noir, Ces grues blanches Ce sont autant d’iles Qui reflètent négatives Les toiles de la rue Frémicourt C’est le blanc ceint Le blanc-seing Que t’aurais enfin donné Mourant Soleil Rose Tu couronnes le blanc Du corps des grues Elle-même D’un halo noir Tout le blanc enfin revenu Au centre du centre Dans le corps vivant D’oiseaux coureurs Et élastiques Ce blanc cet hommage C’est tiré les coins des tableaux Que tu as aimé d’elle Faire un nœud à ton mouchoir Ne jamais l’oublier C’est le blanc qui cesse de t’envahir neige C’est ce qui de toi fond d’elle, Soleil Rose qui s’auréole et que tu peins Iceberg Noir

James Ollier - Nomad Frays
It’s hard to write about James Ollier without sounding like a personals ad: he’s young, likes to travel, and has a clear point of view; he has a delicate touch on the acoustic guitar. His Somerset lilt, his Bon Iver meets James Blunt style of melody, and the inarguably genuine sense of vocal delivery might just make a fan out of you.
It’s a folk-inspired foundation: both the primacy of the acoustic guitar, and the sense of space, contribute to a thematic freedom that allows us a vision of the heart within.
"We are the nomad frays caught between life and change we live for the minute, and then we relive it and get lost inside"  -- James Ollier
With an inspired sense of wisdom, James Ollier makes a broad statement about how small we can be when we stand alone.
James Ollier is a singer and songwriter from Glastonbury, UK. This song is featured on our Lost Treasure - Americana playlist.

An Interview with James Ollier
Name: James Ollier
Based: Somerset, South West England.
Type of Music: Acoustic Folk Rock
    When we stumbled across James Ollier’s music on YouTube, after he posted a beautiful rendition of Mumford and Son’s “Sigh No More” we were wowed by his powerful vocals and his bluesy, folksy tone. As we explored his YouTube more, we discovered his song “Beautiful Truth” and realized this guy isn’t just a cover-artist, he’s a singer-songwriter and a beautiful one at that.
  James agreed to do an interview with us for Reminiscing the Record: reminiscingtherecord.blogspot.com
  You seem to have a very folksy style. What made you start singing that type of music?
To be honest I'm not really sure. I've always loved folk music and have been listening to it since I was very young, as my parents were also fans of the genre. So, I think most of it is down to influence and just being the type of music I like the most.
  Are there specific artists that inspire you?
There have been many artists that have inspired me to write and to keep writing music throughout the years, but mainly I'd say John Lennon & The Beatles, Jim Morrison & The Doors, Led Zeppelin, Laura Marling, early Noah and The Whale, Ben Howard, Mumford & Sons and Alt - J are the ones that inspire me the most.
  Where do you hope to be in 5 years? 10 years?
Really my only hope or aim for anytime in the future is to be able to make a living from my music. Anything else is a bonus.
    What do you do when you lack inspiration?
Hmm, mostly when I struggle to find inspiration I search through the moments in my life, which have had a significant effect, bad or good, and then see if I have any emotions still left for it. If so, I see if I can turn it into a song.
  Have there been any albums or songs this year you wish you had written?
Not sure about this year, but I remember first listening to Ben Howard and to Mumford & Sons (first album) and thinking how amazing it would be if I had written those songs.
  When is your album coming out?
I am working towards an album, but I don't think it will be out until next year. However, there should be EP coming out later this year, so keep an eye out!
    What is your worst or most awkward moment you've ever experienced on stage?
That's got to be when I was 13. I hadn't been playing live for long so I was still pretty nervous. I was halfway through a song when I completely forgot the lyrics and for the next 5 lines or so I had to completely make them up. I have no idea what I must have said, but I imagine it sounded pretty weird.
  Do your songs come from personal experiences?
Yeah all of them do, I have tried to write songs unrelated to me before but I find it too hard to find that emotional connection.
    What instruments do you play?
Just the guitar at the moment and a bit of ukulele.
  What is your dream collaboration?
John Lennon definitely, that's if he was still alive, but a duet with Laura Marling would be pretty awesome!
  Is there a producer you would love to work with?
George Martin (The Beatles producer) would be pretty cool!
  Your song A Beautiful Truth is stunning, what inspired you to write it?
Thank you, I wrote 'A Beautiful Truth' in Vondel Park, Amsterdam. I was sitting down with some friends and at one moment I could see a meditation group, a yoga group, buskers, dancers, families, runners, cyclists, dog walkers, groups of friends, exercise groups and couples. It just seemed in that park at that time the whole world was together and that's what it's really about.

I'll Be There - @JamesOllier
I'm a bit enchanted with this track. I can hear Ben Howard's guitar playing & tone of voice plus the haunting effect of Benjamin Francis Leftwich's singing in this song. [Don't get me wrong, when I compare tracks/artists with another it usually means good. Ben Howard is the first ever Indie Artist I listened to so his music means a lot to me. Leftwich's Atlas Hands & Stole You Away are two of my favorite tracks.]
Anyway, this song is incredible. It's clean, simple and soothing. It's touching too! Thoughtful lyrics. I personally think he should upload more videos/tracks on his Youtube page. He seriously needs to introduce more of his tunes, well because I want more :) Hah! But seriously, this man's got some talent. I wish he gets a big break so that everybody can hear his beautiful music.
Check out his other track called You Are The Earth. It introduced a bit of guitar tapping [I love guitar tapping. I got a bit too excited when I realized he was doing it on this one.]
