François LASSERE was born in
CHAMALIÈRES (Puy de Dome)
in 1960. He is a self-taught
artist who masters various
techniques.
As an artist, the first mission
he sets himself himself, is to
make us share his own
conception of art as an activity
resulting in the expression of
beauty.
For many years, he focused on
hyperrealism and little by little
gave more importance to
matter. Today he is concerned
with underlining what is
extraordinary about ordinary
subjects.
He has given the name of
“OPPOSITIONISM†to his latest
trend.
Indeed the purpose of his work
is to start out of heterogeneous
matters to create harmony.
In December 2004 he was
invited to exhibit one of his
works in one of the most
famous prestigious Art Fair in
the Louvre Carrousel by the
National des Beaux-Arts
LASSERE was also a guest star
at the World Centre for Peace
in Verdun in September 2007.
He is featured as the creator of
the Oppositionism in the World
Book of Records next to
Picasso.
Moreover he is portrayed as
the inventor of the
Oppositionist movement in the
2007-2008 Book of Inventions.
Today his work is present in
many private collections in the
world, in the USA, Japan,
Germany, Belgium, and
Switzerland.
In 1998, he was awarded the
Gold Medal at the Rome
Academy. Today his works can
be seen in prestigious galleries
in Toulouse, Agen, Roussillon-
en- Provence, Moissac,
Clermont-Ferrand, Versailles,
Brive, Arcachon, Etoile in
Luxemburg and currently in
Florida and Japan. Some of his
paintings can be seen in the
Marciano Gallery Place des
Vosges in Paris. The Univers
des Arts magazine devoted its
December-January 2008 issue
to his work.
This constant inspiration incites
us to accompany the painter in
the corridors of time. |
