Même le ciel sera vert

French painter Dorian Cohen takes us to the outskirts of the City, to these meeting points where we never meet. Squares, parks, suburban areas, bridges, highway ramps, beltways ; where trend brings art at the heart of these suburban spaces as if he wanted to rewrite the story. Dorian Cohen turns these ordinary abandoned urban spaces into his own piece of art. Inspired by a renewed approach of the Italian Renaissance maestros, the painter strolls through public spaces to show us the beauty of these urban areas made of contained lush vegetation that evokes a biodegradable end. Painted by fragmented touches in the style of Cézanne, the colors – of dawn and twilight – strangely plunge these epicenters of banality into a form of mysticism. The perceptible echo of a vanished tumult of human life supports the artistic approach.
