Presenting a set of some forty new works, LOVE'S MISSING is Bruno Perramant's 9th solo exhibition at the In Situ gallery. "Where does painting lead us, if not towards an enlargement of the scintillating substance of the world? "The background body is inexhaustible" wrote Artaud: by maintaining in it this floating tension that occupies the body of all living beings, this body comes into the painting. The part of the night that holds back forms affects in it what is destined to be visible: Perramant paints this form which still possesses its negative. Thus, by no longer ceasing to play with what is lost in it, painting sends us back to something that we know to be exactly ourselves...
...For Bruno Perramant's painting, we must dare to use the word metaphysics: the greatest experience that we live on Earth, in the grip of space and time, in the grip of forms, open to prey to forms, open to colours and their inflections that give birth to bodies, is a matter of metaphysics, and of the permanent enlargement that it gives to our thinking....
...Through Bruno Perramant's iconographic freedom, a world of images unfolds that emerge from the darkness and never stop rising from the cave that is the night of each of us: forms that free themselves from anguish, a wall of mental images where what we have in our heads whirls around from this goyish sleep that engenders monsters. A violence of the being is lavished through splendid cold colours that break the humanist fable: the human species is criminal, hence the flood. "
