Labor – who is he ?

Forty  years of creativity,thoughts about art, through paintings and sculptures .teacher of visual art,he qualified from claude bernard in paris. he began painting at17 years old .      -.born on13th may,in 1937, in st denis, on the reunion island,he came to france in  1959 and after studuing mathematics , he fell into art as one falls in  love.

Art? What is it ?

This question became then and is still a direction in his life.

From 1970 to 1980 he was a cubist,expressionist and constructionist, and after investigating creations and discovereries, he elaborated a hybrid art”samplings”  From 1980 to 1990 the objective was  to let  paintings and styles converse (in a quiet dialogue).

What does the art tell us? Does art give us any answers? Since the end of the 1990s and the beginning of the year 2000, labor has been in a more serene and natural period ,a purified, zen, almost philosophical art where writing demands a radical appearance and concept.
