Francine Demeulenaere
I paint to stay close to the mystery of life,to be always in interesting thoughts.
I paint against mediocrity,against cowerdness,against lies, against injustice.
I paint to make my soul grow, to make my mind grow, to make my heart grow.I paint because beauty comfort us in this cruel world constructed by mankind.
I paint to keep my creativity always alive.
I paint because i believe in brotherhood and in the construction of a free and just world for everyone.
I paint to testify that life is preciois and that we are the guardian of this existence.
I am a french artist living in New York since four years.I came here to meet Louise Bourgeois.I was curious to see how, a women artist from the generation of my grand mother, with such a work was like.I was very impressed by her toughness and her courage.She gave me a recommendation to get a grant and told me that my work should be shown in new York. After some time in the city I had to apply for an artist visa which was a very painful experience,because you have to ask to fifty people in the art world to write that you are exceptional
