"For me, abstraction is neither a type of painting, nor a limit. It's a starting point. From there, through the automatism of gesture, writing, rhythms, contrasts and colors linked to reminiscences of inner models, painting becomes a voyage of discovery towards imaginary landscapes." Jacques Zimmermann.
Jacques Zimmermann borrows from ancient realism his magical ambition to capture the creative force of reality, mimicking movement and depth on the immobile expanse of canvas, summoning transparency and thickness, the interplay of light and shadow in a visionary ritual, summoning the materials - the grain of the canvas, the paste of the colors, the edge of the strokes - to reveal their power to trace and evoke. Thus arched over ancient spells, abstract compositions are clothed in ancient desires and future reminiscences.
