Dab de fin

La boutique éphémère c'est fini, on a presque tout vendu à la jeunesse perdue  ils sont livreurs de burgers pour les obèses ou télé-enquêteurs pour le Crédit Agricole Atlantique Vendée, Ils roulent pas sur l'or mais investissent lourdement dans l'art dépravé, la couture déchue et les bijoux pinces de crabes. Merci à Mélissa de Esprit Libre pour son accueil dans la cité Nantaise  Much LOVE <3

Magdalena De La Motte the making-of

“Magdalena De La Motte” or “The feeding”

☞THE MAKING-OF on BEHANCE☜

De La Motte @ L'Art est aux Nefs

Depuis que notre géniteur américain nous a lâchement abandonné et qu’ Andrew est partie en Chine pour y développer une centrale nucléaire clandestine, je me sentais bien seul. Petit à petit je redevenais sauvage et commençais à sentir sérieusement mauvais. Après avoir sévèrement mordu des passants on m’a placé dans un chenil. Heures sombres. Mais cette période est révolue. La brise de l’Atlantique a chassé ses nuages opaques qui obstruait mon lourd futur, car un beau jour Jean Marc et Johanna ont débarqués au chenil pour m’adopter. Désormais je vis avec eux dans une belle maison bourgeoise Nantaise, JM m’emmène avec lui lorsqu’il part faire son footing et Maman Johanna me brosse le poil tous les matins. Tout n’a toujours pas été facile entre nous dans cette relation nouvelle, Papa Jean Marc a dû lever la main plusieurs fois pour me remettre dans le droit chemin. Et Maintenant ils m’aident à reconstruire ma carrière artistique, ils viennent de me pistonner pour exposer nos toiles aux nefs, là ou il y a un éléphant qui attire bien les touristes. Mais Papa Jean Marc préfèrerait que je peigne des scènes marines comme des péniches et des chaloupes avec des pêcheurs, mais moi je veux pas !

Since our natural American father so shamefully abandoned us, and Andrew left to develop a secret nuclear power station in China, I have felt completely alone. Little by little I readopted my old savage ways, and started to feel seriously wicked. After I savaged several passers-by, they put me in the dog home. Dark days. But that's all over now. An Atlantic breeze drove away the dark cloud hanging over my future the day that Jean-Marc and Johanna came to the kennel to adopt me. I now live in an elegant new home in Nantes. Daddy Jean Marc takes me with him each time he goes jogging, and mummy Johanna brushes my hair every morning. Not everything has gone smoothly in this new relationship: Jean-Marc has had to raise his hand to me several times to get me back onto the straight and narrow. And they're helping me to rebuild my career as an artist. They've pulled some strings to get my paintings shown in the large hangar where Nantes' elephant pulls in the tourist crowd. Jean Marc would prefer me to paint nice scenes of the river, with barges and anglers in rowing boats, but I don't want to!

New exhibition @ La Kage

Before, I used to get my hair cut each month at a salon in Vertou. But it all went pear-shaped last time I went in. I’d just gone to get my hair straightened, but the stylist was totally drunk, and I came out with a pudding-bowl cut. I was completely traumatized. Now, whenever a hairdresser tries to touch my hair I start growling and barking. I had to totally stop going to the stylist’s, and little by little I let myself go, became a wild animal. I was like a raging German Shephard. I howled in the woods at night, and nipped the ankles of passers-by…

But my New Year’s resolutions for 2016 are evidence that I can no longer live like a savage beast. I’ve started to eat more healthily, and I needed to find a new hairdresser: one that could control me physically, and handle my aggressive streak. It’s done! From now on I’ll be looking after my hair care at La Kage. And with this new style, and fresh clothes, I’m ready to meet the challenges of a busy life!

Gluten-free canvases and well-groomed German Shepherds now on display at La Kage until Saturday 5 March.

At the Holly Gallery - Australia

In an Australian gallery 16,900km from Vertou's church, a hippy couple stand in a reverie before our latest painting. He, moustachioed, is wearing a capacious fur coat. She sports a band of red fabric woven into caramel hair; a long dress hints at shapely thighs beneath.

Michaël Jackson, man of taste

On a bien connu Michaël, c’était un homme bon mais usé par les tournées et le star-system, il aimait venir se ressourcer chez nous à Vertou dans notre demeure, son Neverland sauvage comme il disait. Les premiers jours il dormait beaucoup, c’était vraiment une loque, on lui cuisinait alors beaucoup de boudins noirs pour qu’il reprenne des forces, c’est plein de fer ! Une fois qu’il allait un peu mieux, on lui faisait faire de l’activité physique: foot, abdos, pompes… Et petit à petit il reprenait du poil de la bête. On passait de longues soirées au coin du feu à discuter de plein de choses: des dauphins, des lignes racées de la peugeot 3008... Il nous avait commandé son portrait il y a bon nombre d’années, mais on avait jamais pris le temps de lui faire… 

Et maintenant Michaël est parti au royaume des taupes. Pour lui rendre un dernier hommage on a exaucé sa commande. Tu es toujours dans nos coeurs, on t’aime copain !

“Michaël Jackson, homme de goût” peinture à l’huile sur toile - 84x100cm encadrée par Büro Allemand

We knew Michaël well, he was a good man but worn by touring and the star system.

He used to come over to Vertou in order to have a break from home, his wild Neverland, as he called it. The first few days, he'd sleep a lot, he was so worn out. We'd cook him a lot of black puddings to help him recover, put some iron back in him! Once he got better, we made him practice sport : football, abs, push ups, all that. And, little by little, he'd get better. We also used to spend long nights by the fire discussing things the things he liked: dolphins, the sleek lines of the peugeot 3008... He ordered the portrait from us many years ago but we'd never had the time to do it…

And now he’s gone, to the worms and the moles. At last we have fulfilled our vow to him. This painting is our sincere tribute to a wonderful man. You’ll always be in our hearts Michaël, we love you, homie!

“Magdalena De La Motte” or “Sucking Time”

“Magdalena De La Motte” or “The feeding”, oil on ticking, framed-98 x124cm

It’s with a huge emotion, recluse in our workshop, that we’ve painted this canvas. We wanted to pay tribute to Magdalena, our mother, wiped out by disease and our father’s brutality.

If you haven’t read our biography, we advice you to do so (go to our Facebook “biography”)

Magdalena was the best mother on earth, and also the best cook. What we prefered most of all, was her custard. Every morning, she used to prepare large bowls we ate before going to school. Our day began with our stomach full of this viscous material, soft and sweet like the infinite love of a mother to her two sons.

today, we still consume custard, but in brick, bland and tasteless

Mummy, we love you, we miss you .

The Minotaur or the offering - Photography remake

De La Motte Brothers featuring Antoine Faiseur d'Images
"The Minotaur" or "The Offering"

Female modele: Gaïa Suteiser

finished by hand with a screwdriver

Just after we painted “The Minotaur” we thought about reproducing this canvas on photography. Then we started to build a mask in papier mâché covered with (stolen) golden sheets (we just couldn’t cover it with Ferrero’ papers !) Lots of cheeks wanted to pose for us, for this no problem. We just needed a male model. So we were looking for THE ONE, in horse racing betting’s places, in weights rooms… One thing we can tell you: men are fearful. We’ve once been said “No, you see, i have too fat a belly for now” So, our project sunk into oblivion.
One day, we met “Antoine Faiseur d’images” during a private viewing (yes, we’re invited to plenty of varnishings) He presented himself as a priest shooting erotic photos, and we like it ! We then drank a bag-in-boxes of white wine together and we got on.
Later, he came to see our work and told us: “Guys, i’ve got a studio, lights and a female model for the Minotaur, one of you could be the Mino on the picture…”
So we went back to work, we built a huge penis and invested on tapioca with a shovel mechanical…

SOON

Soon the photography remake of our painting "The Minotaur" or "The Offering"
