亞洲私人收藏
Jean Volang was born in Hué in 1921, and graduated from the École des Beaux-Arts de l'Indochine in 1942.
Appearing both light and deep, Volang's paintings are poetic and imbued with a remarkable sense of delicacy and sensitivity. His colour palette is sublime and bold, bringing the thick layers of paint to life and allowing the most beautiful shades to acquire a great expressive luminosity.
The blurred outlines evoke the Impressionists, giving the paintings a mysterious atmosphere with a subtle yet brilliant light.
