A little light on Performas :
" (...) John Mas is a regular galleries, exhibition openings, and conferences for its performance always removed. There multiply operations that challenge attitudes Art and make the onlooker about the School of Nice. Performance is for him "an extension of the plastic expression of the artist." It induces a critical discourse and disconnected from nature to highlight the inevitable uncertainties of the mind. One is struck by its clarity oral whenever she flies. This is the art of rhetoric, is resurrecting the route of a gesture, an artist or a movement. In doing so, it is "exporting" the school, including overseas " André Giordan and Alain Biancheri
" performance because it incurs more physically the artist by his presence, his speech and its uniqueness, is a work in itself, thereby authentic. A performance is a performance by Jean MAS, a signature. The title has my name (...). My performances pose an artistic self-repository that legitimate work of art I like producing and generating interest for the spectator, saying that it is the picture (me) that creates the viewer (...). Being a little off, offset, is handling the subversion that allows us the language, offer the pleasure of getting lost in a thought that places a moment of your life in the place of performance. "J. Mas

some performance :

SPACE J. GILETTA - NICE - 1992 - Performas''Splendor''Nice to celebrate the release of a book on the glories of Nice
"The book forced me to take a step back to show my own splendor. I bought a new suit for the occasion. From earth to heaven, from heaven to the earth and formed the thought and architecture in a difficult balance. The plumb line is related to any construction of the mind or of matter. It is the rule. Lack of plumb, you're on the edge (...). The cage flies (*) presented at the Espace Giletta and registered in the register of records arises as an architecture of thought (...). Somehow, the cage flies is a sculpture of a habitat architecture of the mind. . . " Preview - J. MAS

The cage flies , reminiscent of a child-specific practice that some students with a cork and hollow pins, manufactured in small cells to lock up the flies caught during class, will switch from Field fun at the art field. The art critic, Jacques Lepage, in 1970, refers to the CAM as an object symbol of personal mythology Jean Mas. The CAM was exposed at the opening of the Centre Beaubourg (1977). " It's nonsense, Art surface. Like humor. Child, I used CAM, 15 years later, I resumed the practice but the flies do not interest me most, my point is the cage (...) . J. Mas

first image ► Shadow and Light, Jean Mas seen by André Villers

.
In 1953, André Villers met Picasso who gave him his first Rolleiflex camera.
" (...) More than four hundred photographs are produced in this adventure, in which Villers experiments with laboratory techniques from negative overlays, which intermingle with cutouts and recessed. "Signs objects" that the painter borrows from mythology, so cutting hides the photographer submits to the enlarger, photo sensitive and dependent on the interplay of exposure time. Research that is André Villers following Man Ray, as One of the greatest poets in the history of the photographed image ". Carol Shapiro

" The shadow sweats and be dissolved in the uncanny that it can generate ". J. Mas

" André Villers (...) I took him''''his shadow, he who had dared to make folding shade. . . His Rolleiflex never leaves him. He carries this black box, part of himself. In his garden, a huge photograph of his watch on the household as Argus the hundred-eyed giant. Its ten feet tall, it dominates us.
Andre said: " summer, I happily enjoy its shade " . I think while their shadows mingle in Villers providing countless eyes that he is playing them together in his goal. Andre appears from the entire surface of his skin, by the full extent of his shading ".

Technique: Jean Mas photography initially shadows of people or objects and retransposed by painting on a flat surface. The shadows are painted in black and white and reworked from the time of their capture photographic and that of their implementation on the media. The work involves give depth to the shadows and never venture into the shape or silhouette. The shadows are done on wooden panels of a usual format of 1 X 0 m, 60 m . They may consist of cuts, relief, combination of several seizures of the same shade. For
shadows of artists' J. Mas chose to set, to retain in a passage which says a fugitive particularity of the artist.

"It I think it's them, whatever. He is there waiting, stalking, takes freezes. He Part of the artistic landscape, it is all the openings, so now we can not see it. But he sees everything. I wanted her shadow, measured at the mine. One way to respond to flashes that usually elude the shadows blinding me.
The photographer always introduces a break. Strangely it appears in my room by a lack. This is my tribute to the photographer. This lack
betrays emotion photographer / subject. She refers to this situation that makes him better than any other artist of the slave his freedom ". Jean MAS - Artwork in this book SHADOWS''''Giletta Editions, Nice - 1992
