Since the 1960s, Claude Viallat has been moved to revisit the geneology of abstract painting and the seduction of art informel, identifying a primitive form, with distinct and inimitable characteristics that are essential and almost hypnotic. He long ago abandoned the verticality of the easel, painting on untreated canvas on the floor with a mix of gelatins, pigments, and water, and began to direct his attention to beaches and streets, places not typically designated for artistic attention.
