Hugues Gillet
 
 
About the Artist

He has exhibited successively in Monte-Carlo, where he was sponsored by the artist Jean Carzou for the Prix d'Art Contemporain, in Ablon sur Seine, in Rouen, in several art galleries and The Salon des artistes Indépendants.
In Paris, he has exhibited in the Studio de l'Image rue des Carmes (5th). In the galerie Mouvances Place des Vosges (4th). In the galerie Samagra rue Jacob (6th). At the Presse Club de France. And several salon d'Art contemporain.

Now he is exhibiting in the Museum of Imaginary Art in the Castle of
Ferrières. ( Ferrières-en-Brie France).

He is menber of The Society for Art of Imagination.

Throught his painting , Hugues Gillet has endeavoured to give a material,
objectivited and externalized form to his personal world. Half-animal,
half-vegetable representations dwell in luxuriant landscapes or on smooth
horizons in hues of scorched earth, like nightmares revealed on canevas.
Then, he couples impassive, hieratic human forms with vegetable and mineral kingdoms to give form to terrible visions, to revisit ancient myths and legends or to bear witness to the contemporary world and current events.

No matter how disturbing these hybridizations may appear they are familiar, as they stem from a long tradition of representing the surreal and the supernatural. From painting to painting they reveal the various stages of the artist's metaphysical quest and his distinctive poetry.

In a classic and figurative vein , Hugues Gillet, constant and
perfectionist, offers whoever may wish to see, one of the "Possible Worlds"
Paul Klee spoke of.
