Biographie de l'Artiste
Peintre autodidacte, né le 25 décembre 1948 à Carcassonne (Aude), Francis Jalibert pratique la peinture depuis son plus jeune âge malgré quelques interruptions. Depuis quelques années, Il consacre beaucoup plus de temps à sa passion qui lui procure de plus en plus de satisfactions dans la mesure où ses tableaux suscitent d’avantage d’intérêt.Ses oeuvres sont présentes dans plusieurs collections privées :en France, mais aussi à l’étranger : Etats-Unis,Royaume-Uni, Finlande, Hollande, Belgique, Italie, Espagne, Portugal, Maroc, Afrique du Sud, etc...Plusieurs de ses tableaux ont été choisis pour illustrer des poêmes de provence. Il peint essentiellement à l’huile, principalement au couteau,s’exprime dans une recherche d’harmonie dans les couleurs en associant le contraste de complémentaires.Les sujets et les couleurs de ses tableaux révèlent une forte inspiration Provençale, région qu'il affectionne particulièrement et qu'il connaît bien, étant originaire du Languedoc-Roussillon. Peindre est pour lui avant tout une source de plaisir, un moyen de s'évader,de découvrir et d'aller à la rencontre des autres."Peindre c'est apprendre à regarder la nature, à l'apprécier, à la transformer pour mieux se l'approprier" dit-il pour définir son travail. Ce regard très personnel sur le monde qui l'entoure l'ont parfois conduit pour le transfigurer à en donner une interprétation abstraite qui ne laisse quiconque indifférent.
