“FRENCH KISS”

Minsk, Belarus – Paris, France 2013-2014

“French kiss” ia n brave experiment. Live flowers and vivid colours on wonderful portraits create a gallery of elegant and unusual images. “French kiss” is an international project. We found our inspiration in the gentle and flirtatious paintings by a French artist Amylee Paris. Photo exhibition at Mon Cafe is an attempt to “animate” the Parisian splendor of her artwork.

The guests of Mon Cafe tried on the images the bright imagination of the young Parisian created. The authors minds attempted to preserve the style of Amylee’s paintings, and most of the work was done live — the unusual colourful shadows were the result of light effects and the skill of the body art painter, the stylists replicated the hairdos and the make-up and prepared outfits, while eminent models restlessly improved their physical abilities copying the original bends at the painter’s canvases.

“French kiss” is ten portraits – fashionable images combining the simplicity of earnest feelings and the flirtatiousness of a present-day city lady.

“Quel talent, Dennis Fixman a réussi à transformer des modèles vivants en s’inspirant d’une série de portraits que j’avais réalisé à la peinture. J’ai eu la chance que mes tableaux soient sélectionnés par Alexandra Filatova pour le projet novateur « French Kiss » présenté à Minsk en 2013. Dennis a su respecter les couleurs, les détails, les motifs que j’avais peint dans mes tableaux, pour donner vie aux photos de Kirill Podolyak. Un vrai magicien, Dennis sait utiliser le make-up, le body art, l’art de la transfiguration avec tant de perfection. Le travail de cet artiste est sublime et terriblement bluffant, j’ai eu le souffle coupé après avoir vu la vidéo Backstage montrant l’équipe au travail. Je recommande ses compétences et sa maîtrise. J’espère avoir l’opportunité de travailler à nouveau avec lui. Merci Dennis, continue ainsi!”
