His painting refers to pop culture and art Ownership (art) by his inspiration. His technique was initially very pop art with the use of the bomb and stencils and more hyperrealistic with airbrushing to become a modern pointillism.

It was the first multimedia artist inventing in 1979 the holopeinture where he mixed paint holography. He had to work in the early 70s on the different 3D rendering techniques.

Beyond its highly representative form, his painting is primarily conceptual. The themes are the lives of people and things, without limit in treated subjects. All the work of Dominique Mulhem has the same theme : the concept of simultaneous vision. “The look from inside” as Pierre Restany said.

Scarification :
Dominique Mulhem develops a suite of amazing concepts, suite, analysis, updating, revisiting any of these terms is false but none are true, the most appropriate choice would be thinking.

Thinking back on as thought to further examine refraction and reflection as to take another propagation velocity of the history of art. It shall submit the artwork to a movement infinite in space and time.

In the 80’s Portraits of Artists planned painters and sculptors between past and future by offering a three-dimensional holograms vision. In the 90s his imaginary museum, Pierre Restany wrote: “Dream Creatures to a dream before painting it’s more!” In “I should say, because my eye has been unable to separate things, to erase this simultaneous vision, to separate the two elements “.In the 2000s Zones, timeless journeys in the words and sentences of Guillaume Apollinaire’s poem.

Every decade Mulhem shares his world view. Today his scars challenge us on different characteristics of our society to the standardized culture object of mass consumption. Between our secret desires of mutilation look at the work and social scarification whether ethnic, tribal or modern post these incisions on the skin of the painting signify membership revealed to the world the art by opening a new space a ventilation for a need to breathe again.

All the work of Mulhem has the same theme: the concept of simultaneous vision.

CINTRACT

CINTRACT

Cintract David was born in 1970.

Halfway between Warhol and Lichtenstein, the artist projects his vision of consumer society on all media : paintings, dolls or mannequins.

While paying tribute to the great artists Pop, David Cintract has stood out thanks to his strong personality, becoming a key figure in the movement that he founded: “The Pop free.”

David Cintract has a fascination for the exuberant sculpture and storage works so “Aladdin’s cave”.

Inspired by current events and social issues, his work carries with it the ambiguity of a quirky, childlike artistic universe, the tinted optimism tragedy.

Gaiety of colors and patterns, sparkle and communicative joy, but also depth of questions and symbols, such is the David Cintract trademark of refusing ease and laying discrete connections between very poetic forces and darker impulses.

Using techniques as diverse as oil, photo, inclusion or digigraphie, it develops on all media (paintings, models, cars …) several themes at the heart of our postmodern society:

-L’homme Face a frantic and frivolous consumption
-The Place of the fantasies and erotic adult games
-The Loss of our part of childhood in a society that no longer believes in dreams

David Cintract sets worldwide and, thanks to its universal artistic language, nourishes deep exchanges with audiences from all backgrounds and all cultures.

Interview by Mr DAVID CINTRACT LIVE:

“My art reigns in me, but does not rule me”

DJ image and matter, David Cintract is defined as a visual artist and existential touch.
Multisensory, it passes with disconcerting ease of traditional painting techniques with modern technologies such as digigraphie, photography, the inclusion of other products / toys …
Through its mannequins that “dandyse” its Mutantoy’s Candy Box and he makes of individuality in the manufactured and deposited his poetry in the series of objects.

Q: “Is being an artist is obvious to you”?

Art and philosophy are to me the best way to aesthetize my existence. With these two means of expression and reflection, I was able to optimize my tragic optimism and reverse the general neuroticism contemporary works. My wish is to deal with company or topical subjects more or less serious, and to attempt a democratic and positive transcription. For me it is a fun way to play with images and frivolous objects that recall childhood with filigree the finding of a report obsession we have with frivolous consumption, fueled by advertising constantly renewed. This work brings me also to wonder if happiness would not exhausted the pleasure of consumption

“Painting frees me from my anxieties”

What motivates you to paint ?? An engine that is up and running all alone, like a Volkswagen. Well, it’s not really a good example, right now, with the problems of the brand …

Photography. Photo feeds my future work. I leave my travels and I’m sorting the workshop. From this material, I develop new themes. Photographing the reality is not reduced but the sublime. This is an investigation of reality through the lens. The close-up limits our field of vision and focus our attention.

Language. I developed an antibody language that resists permanent aggression exerted on me the outside world. This is the summary of my life. The strength necessary to meet the individual and collective threat that we face.

Anguish. There is a common thread in all my work: loneliness, anxiety ?; this is what I feel in this society that ultimately makes us sick. This is as a painter, with my images, I try to free myself, to find answers.

Thought. It is three-dimensional: painter, photographer and sculptor. People know the painter and photographer but they often forget the sculptor.

New York. The discovery of a mythical place and the same time the rediscovery of a city that cinema had already perfectly told me.

Walls. The places on the fringes of our cities, underground, scrap, landfill yards, the hidden faces of our industrial world exert a strange fascination for me.

Wife. Always eroticized. It does not escape its reassuring aesthetic that brings us back to life. Through fragments of the female body, I invite the viewer to do the job.

Contemporary art. I think of the greater good, I accompany. This is more exciting than ever. Above the Street Art, a reaction to what the city offers us. Our tables are too small.

If you had not been a painter ?? Musician. My father was a musician in his spare time. He played the violin Brahms, Bach, Mahler …
