UAA Campus Bookstore
Guy Langevin will visit the UAA Campus Bookstore on Monday, Jan. 23 at 3 p.m. Please join me for an informal discussion about the convergence of poetry and art, the difference between local and global art scenes, and the sharing of modern and classic art techniques.
A lovely example of his work can be found at http://www.takachpress.com/gallery/LangevinRememberingYourDance.html.
Graduated from Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières in 1977, Langevin has made more than 60 solo exhibitions in Quebec, Canada, U.S.A., France, Belgium, Portugal and Germany. He has participated to more than 300 group exhibitions throughout the world, including approximately 80 international biennials or juried exhibitions. Mainly known for his work in mezzotint, he has received several awards and gives master classes of mezzotint in many countries.
His work is based on duality between the fugitiveness of light and moment, and the
perenniality of impressions people, situations and events make in our minds. As this
duality, the work rocks between precision and blurry images. Haziness may be, sometimes,
the more accurate way to express an idea.
