Exhibition "Dressed by Shadow" by Michel Leclercq at GALERIE LUDWIG TROSSAERT NEW YORK

This online exhibition is open to the public between September 1st and September 30th 2017. You can enter the exhibition by clicking on the picture below.

While Michel Leclercq’s women bodies are drawn with photographic precision, they are represented in a thoroughly subtle & pictoral manner: exposed erotically in mixtures of shade & light, thus full of mystery and consent, wrapped in yellow and blue leaves, both caresses and protection… Paint for him awakens senses of sight and sensuality, reveals and takes away, covers and undresses, liquefies shade spots as if marine bottoms on top of which body parts undulates between sand banks, as if desperate.

Sensuality is the key word. Dressed in shadow, the women of Leclercq are never vulgar but show their subtly covered nudity as a unique fragile artwork.
