It's winter !!

My country is not a country, it's winter, sings Gilles Vignault, our great national poet. The charm of this miniature book, in addition to its delicacy, lies in the humor and the typically French-speaking American language of the North.

endemic thoughts

What is an endemic thought? What is a thought? An idea or a flower? endemic, is it good or bad? 

THE aphorisms, both ironic, funny and charged with deep meaning, answer these questions by other questions that themselves answer the prints created at  4 hands by 2 artists concerned with the meaning of life and creation.

Criss cross bookbinding by Adeline Rognon
Book composed of an unpublished poem by Claude Beausoleil and 10 engravings on linoleum printed on Japanese paper at the Graff workshop.
Edition: 15 copies signed and numbered by the artist.

This book questions the dialectic of the beautiful and the ugly in a graphic and poetic writing carried by the powerful words of the poet. Printed on very thin Japanese paper, the texts appear in the image and the images in the text, unfolding page after page like a meditative journey.

13 linoleum engravings printed on Arches paper at the Lézarts cooperative and at Zocalo, an artist-run center in Lo
ngueil.
Edition: 14 copies signed and numbered by the artist.

This book, one of Michel Butor's last, is a dive into the North American metropolis. The swirling daily life, the displacements, the repetitions of the same gestures and the obsession with the weather are punctuated by words from Montrealers such as:they say there are five seasons around here / in reality there are two / winter and the expectation of winter.

It all started while traveling between Quebec and Ontario. Through the bilingual reality of the two provinces, I question the universal language of road signs and pictograms full of animals and potentially deadly threats.

At the start, there is a collection of words that aim to track down received ideas. 
It was then listed in alphabetical order.
This research on eroticism and how to name it addresses the question of taboos: how to talk about sexuality without experiencing this guilty gene due to millennia of Puritan culture? By humor.
Against anguish, suffering and death, the best thing is to laugh. It is an ideological position.

Theretetomania is not the only prerogative of the French language. English also has its popular language rich in images and poetry. The metaphors show the love of cars as well as the love of babies.
