Untitled 42
2012
This painting testifies to a little-known aspect of Séchas's work, which focuses mainly on figuration and humour.
Alain Séchas became known for his cat figures, presented in paintings, drawings, sculptures and installations since the 1990s. These very largely humanized cats comment on our lifestyles with a nice touch of irony. Beginning in the mid-2000s, the artist focused his work for some time on abstract painting. ln Untitled 42, rather than a painted image, he presents an image of painting, in every sense of the word, in which his in-depth research into light and motion shines through.
