The painting : an initiatory space. For Géraud Vogt the canvas is a dynamic space wich acts on the artist and take him into a constantly renewed voyage. Painting is an intensely interactive experience helping him to find his self knowledge.It is man acting on things wich results in man acting on himself. In his quest the artist lays, scrapes and superposes shapes and coulours in successive layers so that each new layer lends itself to a game of absorption resurgence and transparency. Tackling the limits of paintings his gesture unfolds, sweeps, furrows and invents new ways for a changing world. Géraud Vogt is an alchemist who knows perfectly the reactions of the pigments that he paints. He feels intensely their receptivity, their interaction ant the effect on his own perception. That raw material changed into a living texture enhances our own imagination and reveals our inner self to us. Franc L. Photographer.
