Oil on Canvas Entitled Le Transformateur, signed Bourigeaud, 1970
Born in 1920, Roland Bourigeaud leads, all his life, two careers at the same time. Teacher and painter, the porosity between these two activities is permanents because Bourgigeaud teaches plastic arts. In 1953, he was received Professor at the City of Paris and then fifteen years later was appointed Professor at the National School of Applied Arts and Crafts in Paris. His work on the psychology of shapes and colors, a field he has been studying since 1954, will earn him the agrégation.
At the same time, he developed a pictorial language of his own, between the aesthetics of the Roaring Twenties and surrealism. His works have a very particular grace: we see in them a silent wonder, like the evocation of a dream borrowed from a form of eroticism. The influences of Magritte and classical painting show through his paintings.
His career is punctuated by state commissions (collective or personal) for frescoes and tapestries. He is exhibited in France and abroad so that today his work has entered public and private collections around the world.
This oil on canvas signed and titled Le Transformateur is particularly representative of the work of Roland Bourigeaud in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Between eroticism and surrealism, the painting contains a thousand and one details structured and punctuated by a landscape architectured, between nature and culture. The spectator is invited to stroll through this abundant landscape to discover new things each time he admires it.
