On ne peut rien dire qui en accr\u00e9dite la pr\u00e9sence. Poser le mot devant la peinture c\u2019est comme placer un miroir devant un son. En mesure de le diriger, il ne le refl\u00e8te pas. La peinture \u2014 sa pens\u00e9e \u00e9galement \u2014 ne tient pas d\u2019une id\u00e9e et ne se recherche pas.

Even an explanation from the chef would fall short.

The vast majority would content themselves with postcards to study them with \u2014 as if they were pictures. Painting is not, however, an affair with images. Images bring us to a certain understanding, painting, does not. Inherently material, painting should not be contemplated with logic or reason. The thought behind a painting comes from far beyond the subject matter brought to light in a given composition. It is projected, unimaginably, outside of the frame. The motive or purpouse of a painting escapes its very condition. The images that allow us to percieve varying degrees of complexity do not help at all with a definition. That is shared between other mediums and disciplines. Liberated from images, with no specific purpose or mission, painting opens itself to form in silence. Nothing can be said to give credence to its presence. Putting a word in front of a painting is like placing a mirror in front of sound. If positioned to be projected, no reflection is produced. Painting \u2014 as well as its thought process \u2014 does not stem from an idea it can not be researched. One touches on it when one is touched by it, without thinking twice.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">[\u2026]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vincentdulom.com\/editorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Un-corps-au-regard-De-la-peinture-EN.pdf\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.vincentdulom.com\/editorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Un-corps-au-regard-De-la-peinture-EN.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-purple-color\">Read<\/mark><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Par Vincent Dulom<\/p>\n<p>La pens\u00e9e d\u2019un plat se trouve dans l\u2019assiette.
