PAINTINGS
GRATALOUP’s painting cannot be associated with any particular school or movement. Its singularity lies in a timeless approach in which colour and light play an essential role.
His work in series and his matrix and rubbing technique, developed from 1969 onwards, allowed him to explore the same form through works that are always different. Symbolism lies at the heart of this exploration, opening his painting to multiple interpretations and contemplation.
