Jean-Marie Zacchi

In search of Beauty

We are going to find Jean-Marie Zacchi at the Galerie du Marais, place des Vosges, with new large format canvases, full of poetry and animated with bright colors illustrating the main inspirations of the artist. Thus Zacchi will propose us works on the sea, – Painter of the Navy obliges! -, on Corsica, on Japan, on other visited countries and also still lifes often representing Japanese bouquets with a communicative serenity.

Zacchi is one of those artists for whom painting is above all an almost sacred act:

“In my studio, I feel like I’m in another world where time doesn’t matter, where the only important thing is to get to the point of materializing what you want to say. I don’t think I have a “message” to transmit, but simply the beauty of life, of nature in a way that I would like to be timeless. What is certain, it is that the function of painter, always solitary in his workshop, makes him a kind of pilgrim traversing a way where the matter and the spirit are connected “.
