Olivier de Kerten
Avant-garde contemporary artist. Expressionism abstract art

Olivier de Kerten is a contemporary French artist. In this site you will discover some of his recent artworks. In each of them, you will discover a common language defined by an expressionism abstract art. The artist creates a timeless genre of colours to express the depth of human emotion. He defines himself as an artist of emotional abstraction. He adopts a very particular style which consists in breaking with the classics of abstract painting. He associates colours through a process of gestural painting or gestural abstraction. He embarked on action painting by propelling painting in a spontaneous and non-figurative way, layering colours to arrive at a new constant.

- I can't explain it, but I think it's because my painting is a kind of communication with something beyond myself. I find myself in an emotional dimension. It's like I'm not really there. It's only after I get to know the painting that I see what I've been about. I don't have any fear about making changes or destroying the image because the painting has a life of its own. I try to let it come through me, and that's when the results are good—when there's pure harmony and an easy give and take between me and the painting, so that it comes out well.⁣— Olivier de Kerten

Contact

Crowds are the most difficult thing for me these days because I have to walk with my head down and my eyes averted. There's still that part of me that wants to hold my head up, make eye contact and smile. (c)
