Book - Jean-Philippe Delhomme Paintings

• Known for his career as an illustrator, Jean Philippe Delhomme has long chosen the visibility of the written press to express his talent as an observer of society
• But he also paints, for years, paintings that engage the solitary dimension of his look and his reflection on the modes of representation of reality
• It is only since 2015 that he has shared them with the public
• Since then, he has abandoned his activity as an illustrator in favor of painting
• This first monograph entitled Paintings gathers portraits and urban landscapes realized between 2012 and 2022 and testifies to the fact that Jean-Philippe Delhomme belongs to a modern tradition, that of the search for a truth in painting - this old Cézanne dream of giving to see what is, of adding nothing to it and subtracting nothing from it; to arrive at a work that is itself a re-presentation of reality.
