Between Art and mathematics, the artist reveals unique works combining creativity and computer programming.
Last Saturday, Galerie Anima presented its brand new exhibition dedicated to the works of Charles Giulioli, in the presence of the artist. A curious crowd came to admire his work, captivating in many ways. Charles, born in Paris, engineer from the École Centrale, converted to art in 1976. In 1983, after the Center Pompidou bought two works from him, he decided to devote his life to art.
He moved to the United States, living for seven years between New York and San Francisco, where his works met with immediate success. Back in France, he settled in Toulouse after meeting the mother of his future children. In 2003, he took a turn in his work: he became a digital artist, following seminars that he led for ten years at Supaéro on the theme “Art and Mathematics”.
Currently, he designs digital prints and generative animations, broadcast on screens. He develops his own software and writes his computer programs to produce colored or non-colored images. He has the possibility of creating infinitely according to his programming. What drives his inspiration today is the importance he gives to chance.
This element of chance is essential for the artist, because it is a source of the unexpected, giving his paintings a unique composition. It then prints on paper or aluminum. The print runs are very limited, which makes them rare.
Don’t hesitate to come and discover this range of works that Charles offers, you will surely be touched by the result. The exhibition can be seen until December 21 at Galerie Anima, open every Saturday from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., or by appointment at 06 78 54 75 67.
