Christian JACCARD (born in 1939). "Spiral Ignigraphy IV (Slow Combustion)" and "Untitled Ignigraphy (Slow Combustion)," 1988–1989. Two mixed-media works, signed, titled, and dated on the back. Height: 92 cm - Width: 73 cm Note: Christian Jaccard is a Franco-Swiss visual artist often associated with and exhibited alongside the Supports/Surfaces group, which challenges the traditional codes of painting. Beginning in 1973, he experimented with the process of combustion and, in an interview, described his artistic approach as a tool combining gesture and chance to create the trace and testimony of an event: “Fire is the element that gives rise to a central concern: the trace—a form of memory, a defining event, and a meaningful marker.”
