Pierre Chazelat (born in 1964) Photographic montage of surrealist movement. Signed lower right. Contemporary period. A certificate from the artist will be delivered to the buyer. Dimensions: H: 150; L: 100 cm when viewed. with frame: H: 173; W: 123,5 cm Pierre Chazelat is an artist with a singular approach combining surrealism, onirism and baroque. In his works, the contemporary mixes with the romantic to give birth to immense panoramas where the natural and the fantastic meet. This former photographer, who lived in Africa for a long time before working for advertising and Parisian fashion houses, creates sophisticated stagings. He is inspired by his history and draws from the world around him to create unique painted works, with the will to cross different periods of our history. Thus the wildlife walks in the vestiges, sometimes rusty, of a modern architecture surmounted by a baroque iconography drawn from the canvases of the masters of the 16th and 17th centuries. This unlikely marriage gives birth to surrealist frescoes crossed by a celestial light which offers a certain spirituality to these atmospheres.
