The Estate of Michel Frère
Characterized by sedimentations and superimpositions of layers of paint, Michel Frère’s work allies opacity and light. His work transforms reality, sweeping away figurative elements with matter. An impression of monochrome massiveness emanates from his painting and his sculptures, which are petrified and always materialistic.
His painting is neither in line with a trend nor a fashion but transcends its time while being anchored in it, questioning the history of painting. Michel Frère has cut himself off from all fashion effects, drawing exclusively on the source of the intuition by which he intended to seize the world.
