Pierre Soulages (24 December 1919 – 26 October 2022)

Pierre Soulages is considered a major figure of post-war European abstraction, alongside Hans Hartung, George Mathieu, Serge Poliakoff and Jean-Paul Riopelle.

He’s particularly renowned for his “outrenoir” (“beyond black”) series of paintings, which feature matte and glossy black fields interrupted by ridges, scores, and gashes; the artist is interested in how black paint absorbs and reflects light.

Since making his gallery debut in 1947, Soulages has exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art, The Louvre and the State Hermitage Museum (he was the first living artist to show at the institution), and his work has been acquired for the collections of the Centre Pompidou, The Guggenheim, Tate Modern, and the National Gallery of Art in Washington.

Applying the paint in thick layers, Soulages’ painting technique includes using objects such as spoons, tiny rakes and bits of rubber to work away at the painting, often making scraping, digging or etching movements depending on whether he wants to evoke a smooth or rough surface. The texture that is then produced either absorbs or rejects light, breaking up the surface of the painting by disrupting the uniformity of the black.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SynesthesiaNew ideas!!!!

I’ve honestly been finding this module really difficult. I’m usually okay at coming up with ideas, but have  found myself in a creative block this time around :( However! I stumbled across a video last night by my favourite Podcast series ‘Good Mythical Morning’. The show involves the duo talking about wacky things in the world, such as weird products that exist, rare/unknown diseases and conditions, and all things strange to the world. 

The video above is one of their podcasts that I have re-stumbled upon. It speaks about the condition called ‘Synesthesia’, which is a “neurological phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway.” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesthesia

I found this condition so interesting to learn more about! AND on top of that, I also discovered that my housemate has this condition! So not only was I able to learn about this online, but also first hand from someone who also has this second cognitive pathway. 

Relating this idea back to the theme of the project ‘BeyondBlack Box White Cube’, I am playing with the concept of bringing something so rare, that not many have heard of, straight into a public place, where the unknown becomes known. I’m thinking of maybe hosting this in a corridor of a building (not sure where, maybe University.. Grand Parade perhaps?), somewhere many people have to pass through and cannot ignore the piece. 

I’m still not 100% sure if I will stick to this idea, but it is definitely the most interesting subject matter that I have came across as a potential piece for the project.
