Francois Faucher
 |
Quebec-born artist Francois Faucher calls his painting style “Vibrationism” an art form that creates the illusion that the painting being viewed actually vibrates. A sense of movement is achieved through the chromatic vibrancy of his colors and distortions of the subject. Lyrical and whimsical, Faucher’s paintings explode with a fleeting shimmer of fragmented shapes, which are colorful, expressive, fragmented and delightful. In his works, boundaries are shattered and the universe is composed of a mass of rainbow colored vibrations. |

about Francois Faucher
Francois Faucher was born in Thetford Mines, Quebec, Canada in 1959. He studied architecture and graduated from Laval University, Quebec, in 1983. Six years later, he gave up his architectural career to devote himself full time to painting
Light is the true master of the works of Francois Faucher, Vibrations run everywhere – through colors and forms. Objective and subjective throbbing permeates every component of his paintings. Backgrounds are more than mere surfaces: they become part of the composition in their own right. The intensity of figures, flower-pieces, and still-life compositions emphasizes the whirling chromatics and forms. Postures are full of expressiveness and vitality. Shattered forms remain figurative but questions nevertheless arise. Music is everywhere – in composition as well in their pictorial depiction. Pleasure for the eye and stimulation for thought.
Initially known in Canada, "vibrationism " is also recognized by Art Crtics in the United States, after an individual exhibition in New York in 1993, where he appeared on the cover of Artspeak. Now, his style is also recognized in France.
François Faucher has solo and collective exhibits in many cities in Europe such as Paris, Annecy, Toulouse, Bourges, Salers, Conques, Montpo-Ménestérol, Amsterdam and Cologne; in the United States: New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Boston, Spring Lake, Sarasota, High Wood, New Orleans and Provincetown; in Mexico: Guanajuato and in Canada: Vancouver, Calgary, Ottawa, Montreal, Quebec and Baie St-Paul. He also has exhibited solo in three Canadian museums: The Laurier Museum, The Marc-Auréle Museum and The Mining Museum of Thetford Mines, where he presented a retrospective exhibit celebrating his 25 years of artistic career. He also has his work in several private collections such as that of Elton John, Billy Joel, Gabriel Aubry (international model), Prospect Heights Care Center (Hackensack, NJ), Microsoft Canada and Corus Entertainment (Toronto), to name a few.
