Pleasure to compose all the elements, with obsolete items familiar , unusual . Pleasure to share with you and draw you into the magical world of childhood memories, in a world in brackets , idealized , tender and nostalgic, to the magic of a happy world . ” Charlotte Lachapelle

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 …
