About Pierre
Pierre Riollet graduated from the École d’Art Auguste Renoir in Paris in 1983. After 20 years in advertising as an Art Director, he decided to devote himself exclusively to painting. Following a trip to the United States in 1987, he began work on the theme of New York façades and their cast shadows, inspired by American hyperrealists.
Always captivated by light, his work took a new direction a few years later, on the theme of passages. The contrast between shadow and light induced by this subject is the hallmark of this period. The dark frame magnifies the external brightness and directs the gaze toward a dazzling opening, letting the imagination drift toward the light. Beyond the pictorial aspect, it is also the symbolism of the strength of transition that is expressed in these passages.
After having long declined all kinds of backlighting in cafés, urban atmospheres, nocturnal and snowy landscapes, portraits… his painting now leans toward reflections, notably of the sea. Always with the same care given to chromatic accuracy, Pierre is today passionate about the decomposition of light and its interaction. By using brushstrokes close to abstraction when the eye zooms in on the details, his canvases—most often large-format—exude a vibrational force of great intensity.
Pierre Riollet regularly exhibits in numerous galleries and contemporary art fairs. His works are now in many private collections.
His journey is somewhat like a progressive zoom that, from one canvas to another, traversing all these passages, moves toward the light.
