Note du spécialiste

"I want portraits in which description makes use of the same mechanisms as those used in a landscape; here wrinkles, there ravines or paths; here a nose, there a tree; here a mouth, there a house" J. Dubuffet quoted by F. Beyler, {Jean Dubuffet: Metamorphoses of Landscape}, exh. cat. 2016).
