He was recently awarded the ‘Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres’ by the French Minister of Culture in France. In the face of the dark events of the twentieth century, his work sings of awakening joy and hope for a better future. His non-figurative paintings draw on new technical concepts of space and perspective. They impose a change of scenery, and suggest the start in a search for the divine mystery.
