Renowned artist Philippe Pastor is preparing a major art event that is sure to captivate art lovers around the world. His long-awaited exhibition in Les Baux-de-Provence, entitled “Philippe Pastor: How is the World going? “started on June 1 and runs through September 30. This exceptional exhibition will offer visitors an immersive and stimulating experience through four distinct series: “Les Arbres Brulés” (Burnt Trees), “Bleu Monochrome”, “La Fin du Monde” (The End of the World), and “Avec le Temps” (With Time).
In the tradition of the great masters of art, Philippe Pastor has always established a subtle link with Vincent van Gogh, the famous post-impressionist painter. Like Van Gogh, Pastor finds inspiration in the beauty of nature and explores the depths of the human soul through his artistic creations. Les Baux-de-Provence, the place of inspiration for the artist’s intense life fascinated by the warm and colorful colors of the landscape, is also an ideal setting for Pastor’s exhibition, creating a powerful link between two visionary artists. With unmatched talent, Philippe Pastor explores environmental themes and the impact of human activity on our precious planet. Using pigments and organic materials, as well as the natural reactions of time and the environment, the artist brings his concerns to life through striking creations.
Les Baux-de-Provence is a meeting place for great artists, most recently “from Vermeer to Van Gogh”, is preparing to welcome Philippe Pastor with enthusiasm. Artists such as Marc Chagall have exhibited their works in this region, establishing a close relationship with the Monegasque cultural scene. Philippe Pastor’s exhibition is an ideal opportunity to continue this artistic and historical tradition. Indeed, in 2012, His Serene Highness Albert II of Monaco, then Marquis of Les Baux, inaugurated the Prince Rainier III Garden, testifying to the importance of these cultural exchanges.
The series “La Fin du Monde” (The End of the World) and “Avec le Temps” (With Time) expose viewers to the unforgiving reality of environmental crises. Through powerful and evocative paintings, Philippe Pastor explores themes of devastation, loss, and the consequences of our actions on the planet, evoking the inner conflicts that run through Van Gogh’s work. Like the famous artist, Pastor uses the power of art to evoke emotion and engage deep reflection on our relationship with nature.
The “Bleu Monochrome” series is an extraordinary collection of paintings centered on a deep, rich shade of blue. Focusing on the ocean and its essential role for our planet, Philippe Pastor uses this color to symbolize the vastness and fragility of our world’s ecosystems, recalling the seascapes dear to Van Gogh.
Philippe Pastor’s exhibition in Les Baux-de-Provence is a unique opportunity to discover the convergence between art and environmental awareness. Each series presented offers a unique perspective on the urgent need for sustainable development, preservation, and conservation of our planet’s threatened ecosystems.
Visitors to the exhibition will be immersed in a fascinating journey, beginning at the Charles deGaulle esplanade where a first sculpture of burned trees will greet them. The tour will continue to the Hôtel de la Tour de Braü, where the rest of the exhibition will captivate the senses. The visually stunning and emotionally compelling creations of artist Philippe Pastor will provoke thought and dialogue on the pressing environmental issues of our time.
