     Through the acrylic painting on canvas by Eric Bourdon titled “Sky of subtle oil over a golf course in Lectoure” we see dawning the equivalent, in the painter, of the existential concern for being – a marked, obstinate interest in the sky as ultimate transcendence, a passion for air, wind and space as sources of inspiration, subtle oils and matrices of any pictorial operation.

     The acrylic painting on canvas by Eric Bourdon titled “Siege of Bayonne by the army of the Marquess of Wellington” reexamines the strange and peremptory statement of Maurice Merleau-Ponty : “The painter lives in fascination”. If the painter lives in fascination, it is because his gaze is that of who sees as much as of who is seen. What is at stake here is the very question of our presence in the world, a presence threatened and besieged by Marquesses of Wellington of all kinds. An essential question that has its place in the hollow of this fascination which is the irreducible mode of existence of the painter in front of his canvas. The siege of Bayonne calls not so much for a neo-romantic exaltation of pictorial creativity as for an ontology of the natural world in which the layer of aesthesiological meaning that is elaborated thanks to our carnal complicity with the things would be fully explained.

     Eric Bourdon’s acrylic painting on canvas titled “Bucolic getaway of hens with hollow teeth” is part of a transcendental questioning extended to the whole of culture : to language, myth and art. It is a question here of reexamining the very being of the world, and not only of determining the conditions of its discovery. The critique of reason is therefore replaced by a critique of culture as a whole.

     Eric Bourdon’s acrylic painting on canvas titled “Naos Art Vicat Symphonica in Zo major” expresses the ineffable which must absolutely find expression in one medium or another and which, in fact, can only do so in art, since it is established that doing metaphysics, ethics and aesthetics in ordinary language produces only nonsense.

Harmonic pictorial variations between stasis and flows constituting the aesthetic moment by means of small dissensual but no less structuring perceptual leaps in a freakishly unusual post-contemporary perspective.

     Eric Bourdon’s acrylic painting on paper titled “Harmonic pictorial variations between stasis and flows constituting the aesthetic moment by means of small dissensual but no less structuring perceptual leaps in a freakishly unusual post-contemporary perspective” propagates towards the soul of the esthete continuous waves of potential information which, until the conclusion of his observation, boil down to trains of action potentials, fluctuations of post-contemporary pictorial perceptions and releases of molecules in the synaptic clefts of the aforesaid.

All and nothing – A whimsical text of free poetry

all and nothing free poetry eric bourdon


     Dear friends of poetry !

     Is everything really everything if it is not at the same time nothing? And reduced to nothing, can he find himself back ?…

     The following text of free poetry, All and nothing, finally tells you all there’s to know about everything, and also about nothing or not much. How could you know anything about everything if you don’t know anything about nothing….? No translation problem, what is written is exactly what is meant !

     However, the whimsical text All and nothing is only (for now) the best possible translation of the French text Tout et rien, written in 2019, which has received several prizes for free poetry in France.
