« Manhattan Jungle » or the universe of Alain Godon’s paintings
Manhattan Jungle — you’ll discover New York in a different way, my way!” This exhibition is the culmination of a stay of several months in New York.
M[…]anhattan Jungle is an entertaining exhibition with a motif that is somewhat childlike in nature. The eye is drawn straight away to the intensity and contrast of colours and also to the subject matter of the canvas. “He processes the images he sees with an almost 360° vision” explains Régis Dorval. The result is magnificent. His paintings give the impression that a series of events have been two– dimensionally compressed. “What is most important for an artist is that he has his own style. He has to be identifiable in the same ways as a singer has a distinctive timbre to his voice. Alain Godon’s work is always cohesive, always retains the same spirit.” […]” He tries to communicate his own joie de vivre and vision of the world as he would like it to be” adds Régis Dorval.
