Philippe Pastor

Coup de Fusil
July 6 - August 11, 2006

Born in 1961, Philippe is a self-taught painter far from university techniques. His work navigates between the pain of an individual who became a painter and the drama of a destructive humanity. To release this incorporated violence, he decided to paint the roots of human nature, by choosing the moment of the fall, when people abandon themselves to their destiny and misfortune once and for all. Art is the international language and Pastor’s paintings are the interpreters of the world that is a stage. With their strong colors and their rough forms, they always describe moments in life.

Philippe Pastor has had solo exhibitions in France, Italy, Monaco, Belgium, Romania and the United States. His sculptures "Burned Trees" are on exhibition at the headquarters of the United Nations in Nairobi, Kenya.
