Artist Statement:
RICMERIC has done very few
exhibitions, although many of
his paintings have been sold
to private collectors. His
artistic career has been
supported by what we call in
French “le succès d'estime.”
Now and then, Ricmeric's goal
is to track the greatest
mystery of the created world:
the double nature of all
things. His main concern is to
send clear and pleasant
messages for the soul, to
bring positive feelings to his
fellow humans. So, one should
not be astonished to find the
traces of this quest in the
majority of his pictures, in
which the Masculine and the
Feminine figures are
reconciled or clashed, the top
and bottom, the inside and the
outside merged, the heat and
the cold harmonized despite
the violence of the primary
colors which he uses, in their
pure state.
If one adds to that a very
marked leaning toward wild
nature and an unquestionable
misanthropy, one will
understand that his public
life and his celebrity were
reduced to their simpler
expressions. But be sure that
Ricmeric is communicating with
us, maybe with our
subconscious too.
Ric used to say that his
paintings are like books, for
they have to be “read.” ...
