Alexandre IDIER
Born 1974 in Coruna on the Galician coast of Spain.
Currently living and working in Paris.
In his first works Alexandre explored the application of natural pigments and materials – spices, coffee, plaster, glue, cotton wool – blending the representational and the abstract.
Rapidly followed the desire to discover new means of plastic expression. Sculpting painted clay lead him to develop the relief of the material directly to the canvas.
By 2000 the feelings and ideas, which followed his creative approaches found their full expression in abstract works.
Alexandre has cultivated an independent style. Geometry asserts itself quickly. Colour and form become the focal points of his work. Black gradually takes on the rank of a totally separate colour. Black becomes The colour, black becomes the whole palette of colours.

Significant French artist of the Abstract Constructivism, for Alexandre art stems above all from the sphere of feelings. The creations flow from paths that open up like the windows of the imagination. Look at his pictures and the best part is left to the imagination – for each of us to find our own meaning.
