Note : At that time, and as he had occasionally done since 1975 in his Tears and Tearings series, GRATALOUP deliberately tore away sections of paper that had been mounted onto the canvas, particularly in its central areas.
“Through tears and tearings, the subject becomes secondary and polychromy gains its independence, subject only to the painter’s various impulses and attitudes.” — GRATALOUP
