I like this progression from the effect of material where everyone can let his fantasy enter, to a well-defined form which expresses a symbolic aesthetic universe.
Jean-François Fouilhoux
What represents for me the path of a successful artist is his ability to create a work that will stand the test of time.
In this sense, Jean-François Fouilhoux's career is exemplary.
His work is both timeless and universal; by the choice he made to concentrate his research on celadon, to the point of excelling in the technical mastery of this enamel from Asia, and above all by the choice to rely on this technique to develop a formal statement that he has been able to develop over the decades.
Starting from the earth to go towards the sky, inviting the viewer to a sensory journey, among the folds and folds, the transparencies and cracks.
One discovers in each line the strength of the gesture which determined it.
Fluide, élégante, surprenante cette sculpture est aussi comme une calligraphie "des signatures laissées dans la terre"
D'autres œuvres de Fouilhoux sont présentées dans le musée dans le cadre des nouvelles expositions de La Piscine (vernissage le vendredi 5 novembre à partir de 18 h). Un mur leur est d'ailleurs consacré dans le fond du Bassin (côté du Lion).
Jean-François Fouilhoux has just discovered that “ceramics are not the design, but the” material “itself, the molten rock”. Some edges, projections more or less tapered will then fill the vacuum, rhythm and organize it. One of his teachers, Pierre Roulot, then hired him to discover the recent donation of Chinese ceramics made by Mr.
Calmann to the Guimet Museum.
Then and there, Jean-François Fouilhoux, in 1969, at the age of 22, stops in front of the celadons. The opposition between the indefinite and the defined greatly attracts me, and underpins my work. They are the idea and thought I aggregates with most sensual forms from the outside.
In the summer, in Indre, in Gargilesse, he meets ceramicist Guy Baudat: “I’ve always been in the ceramic world,” he says.
Dividing his time between work at school and a job as a model maker, he discovered a book on Chinese ceramics, a Massin edition, where large vases decorated with bamboo inspired his calligraphy decorations.
On sait que le musée La Piscine de Roubaix réserve une belle place aux céramistes contemporains. On the most recent sculptures, the modeling of a fleshy lip opposes the tension of a line sharp as a blade where the material disappears. At the age of 13, 14, his parents sent him to spend his free time with a ceramist, Daniel Cadot, a former Applied Arts graduate.
We perceive this vibratory impulse, the meeting of the full and the empty, a fragile balance that echoes our human condition. There, he discovered a passion for modeling, sculpture, drawing: his master, Roger Plin, appointed to the Beaux-arts, trained a few students there, but Jean-François Fouilhoux, himself, decided to be a ceramist. Vernissage samedi 6 novembre dès 15h, en présence de l'artiste
FOUILHOUX Jean-François, ceramic, permanent artist of Galerie Capazza since 2000
Since my installation in Mont-près-Chambord in 1976, I study celadon, seeking unobtainable information in books.
Ten years later, in 1986, a weighing error leads me towards this mesmerizing, mythical, satin and translucent material, to which I still devote all my mind and all my time.
Justement, de l'autre côté, au pied du Portique, le céramiste Jean-François Fouilhoux présente sous le thème "Le chant de la terre" , une suite de personnages comme en apesanteur. Ce céramiste âgé de 74 ans est l'un des rares artistes occidentaux reconnus comme Maître de la Céramique en Chine, c'est une référence
On peut aussi le découvrir à la galerie Le Fil Rouge 112 avenue Lebas à Roubaix.
He can only urge his student to follow the same path as him.
At 16, Jean-François Fouillhoux entered the School of Applied Arts. At 20, he graduated.
