From 21 June to 21 September, the Hôtel Mercure Figeac Viguier du Roy is hosting an exhibition of works by Anne Arbus and Jean-François Fabriol. This exhibition highlights the work of two artists who each use their own language and sensibility to create works that convey a message of beauty.
Anne Arbus
Anne Arbus is a painter, weaver and poet who trained at the Aubusson School of Decorative Arts. She has lived in Faycelles since the 1990s, and draws her inspiration from nature and her commitment to human rights and the environment. Her work combines painting, calligraphy and tapestry, which she sees as three complementary forms of expression, linked by the symbolic thread of "textus", which unites text and textile.
Jean-François Fabriol
Jean-François Fabriol is a photographer with a passion for the underground world, which he explores through speleological expeditions to the four corners of the globe. His work aims to reveal the hidden beauty of caves and nature. He is also interested in the reflections, shadows and movements of water, which he transforms into abstract images called chromorphographies. More recently, he has developed kalographiesThese are visual compositions based on symmetrical images, inspired by mandalas and kaleidoscopes.
