Encounter - Richard Texier in his studio

Richard Texier, born in 1955, is a French painter and sculptor associated with the Figuration Libre movement in the 1980s. His work is characterized by a symbolic and dreamlike universe, drawing on mythology, science, and cosmic references.
His works blend hybrid figures, imaginary landscapes, and abstract symbols in paintings rich in color and texture. He has developed a personal visual language that is both lyrical and enigmatic. Richard Texier is now recognized for the uniqueness of his artistic universe, which straddles figuration and abstraction.
