Thank you very much Nicolas, good evening everyone! It's really a pleasure to see you all here together for this beautiful exhibition! I've been living here in Besançon for a very long time (15 years) and I've known two curators before and I've always tried to make this museum open to contemporary art. And finally, it is opening there, thanks to you Nicolas! I think this is good news for all the artists here tonight...

In parallel with the major exhibition La Chine rêvée by François Boucher, the Musée des Beaux-arts et d'Archéologie will house Les quatre piliers du ciel , a monumental installation by the Franco-New York painter Jean-Pierre Sergent. Exactly 72 paintings on Plexiglas, chosen from the series of Entropic Suites and presented on eight panels facing the four corners of the two main staircases.

Filmed par Franck Lallemand for the Est Républicain newspaper at MBAA on October 31st 2019 during the interview with Catherine Chaillet. I am a French New Yorker artist and have been working in Besançon since 2005. I present here at the Besançon Museum of Fine Arts, these large wall installations, in total, there are 72 paintings (80m2) and 18 panels in each corner of the museum. The title of the exhibition: The four pillars of the sky, which people can discover when they walk up these stairs. The title of the exhibition: THE FOUR PILLARS OF THE SKY. It is a reference to all mysticism and to the Axis mundis, those places where one can communicate with the gods or the spirits, My paintings speaks of life, rituals, rituals that are disappearing nowadays. We are talking a lot about biodiversity. But, at the same time, so many cultures are disappearing today! One can feel really lonely to face our destiny ! We can see Mayan, Egyptian and Inca civilization patterns. It's quite a mix! I work with anything that fills me with joy!

"I think what makes it a unique work and when it is inhabited by a presence, a soul, that challenges the viewer and takes him to another place." Interview artist Jean-Pierre Sergent for Quid Magazine.
