Taking inspiration from the light of Caravaggio, the deformations of Bacon, and Picasso's freedom of form, Eymann engages in a series of constructions and destructions to reveal modern complexities

bio

Self-taught artist, Florian Eymann (b. 198, France), is best known for his oil paintings in which he explores dark themes. In dismantling and reinterpreting faces and expressions of the traditional portraiture, Eymann leans into experiments with form and relation.

In 2018, Eymann’s works were shown with Avant Gallery at the Art New York art fair and at SCOPE during Art Basel in Switzerland. The following year, Eymann’s work was shown with Avant Gallery at the Art Miami art fair. Eymann’s first U.S. solo show took place at Avant Gallery in New York in March of 2020.

Throughout Eymann's work, one may not know if the forces that inhabit them are destructive, generative, hostile or transformative. What may have been an original images has been covered with layers of unfathomable patterns, and seemingly all of a sudden, these accumulated layers were ripped off, allowing for peeks onto the original image. The ideas of time, deterioration, and the way that time ravishes our memories come to mind and evoke [décollage artist] Jacques Villeglé’. In Eymann’s work, however, there are no posters or ads, but portraits of characters whose identities have been stripped away. EVerything is in process, evolving through transformation, change, and the wearing effects of time.

My work is based on interpretation and play. Play with the first feel of the visitor. We are bathed in a museum culture and I like to distort by light, texture, movement or color.
