Arnaud Quercy is a Parisian artist working across painting, music, and sculpture. His practice is grounded in Ideamorphism — the principle that a work of art does not carry meaning, but triggers it. Each piece is engineered to diffract differently through each person who encounters it.
He creates and exhibits at Art Quam Anima, his gallery-atelier at 28 rue du Dragon, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Paris.
About This Artwork
Stand before the Opéra Garnier at twenty past ten, the great public palace ablaze with light. Red and green, lavender and purple, blue and white surge out of the black — monumental, festive, unmistakably Paris in its grandest evening dress. You can almost hear the murmur of an audience drifting out into the lit night.
This is one of the 72 Facets of Paris, the series born of a piano waltz of the same name, each measure a Parisian place at a given hour. Drawn from the chord E♭7♯11, its bright tension flares as the dance nears its close and circles back to the prelude. To own it is to hold the city's most luminous landmark in the palm of a single page.
Acrylic on paper, 18 × 13 cm, signed on the reverse. A radiant, collectible square of a painted Paris waltz — grandeur made intimate.
