Jean-Luc PARANT (b. 1944) La Boule à pipes à Brassens Silkscreen print numbered 22/30 70x50cm photo Anna Blomme.jpg Born on April 10, 1944 in Mégrine-Côteaux near Tunis, Jean-Luc Parant continues to circle around a very singular body of work. Having called himself a "manufacturer of balls and texts on the eyes" since the late 1960s, then a "printer of his own material and his own thoughts" in the 2000s, as if he had invented his own unique profession, Jean-Luc Parant's poetic work is inseparable from his plastic work. Indeed, his work, conceived in the strict duality of its themes, is all about texts and balls, vision and touch, day and night, the infinite and the infinite. Jean-Luc Parant sings of space, the world and the eyes that see it, orbiting around a sun that no longer burns but illuminates us. Jean-Luc Parant is searching for a machine that could take man to the stars, as quickly as his eyes take him to the sun. He believes that men and women will not be able to continue to exist unless they find a way to change the sun and think of the world differently. His works and installations can be found in numerous public and private collections (Centre Pompidou, Musée d'art moderne de la Ville de Paris, Fondation Maeght, Musées d'art contemporain de Lyon, de Marseille, de Strasbourg, Musée des beaux-arts de Toulon, Fondation Stämpfli, Fondation Agnès B., and various Fonds Régionaux d'Art Contemporain...). His monographs are published by Actes Sud. His texts on eyes have been published by Argol, José Corti, Fage, Fata Morgana, La Différence and Les presses du réel, among others.
