a Man… a History!

How not to stop on St Medard-with-Guizières without stopping on a central figure of this commune… Stephan Cherry tree! Symbol of a new perpetual French class in movement , it comes to be established in this place by " reflex citizen " (Le Monde, sept.2004). In this expression which characterizes its author so well, our man endeavors to show but especially to show the mechanisms of the daily newspaper. The simplest gestures are high with the row of Art in which it adds the experiments " by concern of reality " (Télérama déc.2005.) It is always " to wake up the consciences and to awake sciences " (Sciences and lives of the Earth jan.2006) that it settles in its naked garden with half, and during a whole day of December and by an icy wind, which it goes " to expose to the natural elements " (South-west 02.01.2006). But this hyperactivity disturbs a local population which is not yet ready with such an amount of radicality. To calm the play and " to plunge in the peuplieric harmony " (Custom and traditions 22.01.2006), our man breaks with his usual image of man engaged for " to melt in the metal of ordinary people " (even article). Provocation or simple expression of a man embanked by the loss of a expensive tree, always is it that its followers will see the sign " there; of a bourjonnesque attachment ". It is always by " requirement citizen " that it adopts the " hard methods " French workers. It rises consequently the every day to 7:00 and proclaims " the libertarian and revolutionary thought of the producers of values to joule-tea ". It starts an introspective work aiming at making the man mechanical under the influence of the rotary pressure of a launched photocopier at any speed. It will leave unscathed this experiment which gives birth in England to Jackasseries. Anobli by the Queen Mother , it brings back of its stay to St Medard-of-Guizières a phone box which is on the place of the town hall. During 17 days of the fans in fright will try to occupy space. Obviously moved by " this individual nationalization of space " (Humanity 02.01.2007), it decides to baptize the place: " my birth, my life, my work ". Simplicity or need to find " the way of underground rise " (psychology magazine 03.03.2007, it joins again with its origins. The drawing and more particularly Paintings remake surface on the ground of Arts and Cultures of the ground on which he likes to lie down and recoucher the features " of one company to major Art " (daily newspaper of Graphitis and Tag in Minor art on virgin and public surfaces, 17.06.2007) But since 3 months the Artist guizérois who prefers " to listen to the silence" leave its followers on the square of the noises of the monde". Let us wish for our greater pleasure than the Master left his reserve finally so that Dien de Carpe… Diem!
