Born in 1960 in Paris, Patrick Rubinstein is a contemporary French artist from the world of fashion working his paintings on a concept of OPT ART (Kinetic Art).
Thanks to an innovative technique his works offers you 3 different views depending on your angle vision and giving you 3 times more emotions.
You would like to see the idols of your youth? Patrick Rubinstein stages them for you by combining a unique optical game to another image. For Michael Jackson? A graph of “Beat It” in a nod to his worldwide hit in 1982.
The Beatles? The Union Jack. For the four giants of the fifties, Spiderman, Betty Boop, Super Man and Marilyn?… The same, but in color or black and white, depending on the angle of view … We are in the pop and street art, game design, dynamic and generous. But in the op art, optical art, which plays everything and especially to us, to our delight.
Everything begins as Patrick Rubinstein is still a teenager. He loves art, film cameras and kinetics. What to choose between the three? Nothing – that is all. It sectional lamella a picture, the intercalates with another, then glue the image reconstructed on a support, a tent folded up concertina and obtained a work in relief.
From the front, the picture is double, the two photos overlap, but for perspective, the effect is stunning. Depending on the angle, there appears only one of the two images. His concept was born in 3D.
His first creations are made from portraits of his relatives. A mother and son, brother and sister, father and daughter … Quickly, his visual game is a great success beyond his entourage. It must continue – all is how? His technique is still too small-scale to support more sophisticated designs, even more so in size XXL.

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.

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.

Meanwhile he began to devote himself to painting. It exclusively since 1996. Since that date, after several shows and exhibitions he exhibited in several galleries in France and the USA.
If we had two words, not one more set for the work of Laurent PARCELIER, it would be poetry and light. Which might be added, luxury, calm and voluptuousness, love of nature, quiet places and warm family atmosphere.
Poet of light, the poet is assured. Blink eyes slightly, place in front of one of his paintings and watch it at your leisure, you will only see sparks of light everywhere.
Laurent PARCELIER gives the impression of living in eternal holiday, between Provence and Luberon.
Happy and contemplative, flowing peaceful days with family in a beautiful house, basking in the sun of the south, nestled in a village clinging to the hillside, with the only horizon, the sky, the sea, a flowery plain, wooded mountains, offering bahous bald head to the caress of the day.
Impressionism :
As part of the largest movement of traditional French impressionist painting, and more specifically, the work of Parcelier is not less remarkable and very personal.
The visitor’s eye is first attracted by the graphic writing that comes from his experience in the world of comics. It was then struck by the meticulous and rigorous construction of his paintings. There is indeed a kind of spine that allows the color, broadcast by a multitude of light touches, not to get lost in a chaotic abstraction.
The works of Laurent Parcelier are part of many private collections throughout the world, and are well known to art lovers from France and Europe.
