About Paul Thierry
Paul Thierry's decorative collages, with their evocative pictorial effect, have made it into the art collection of the German government.
In his unique technique, Thierry (born in 1976) makes the never-ending hustle and bustle of the streets of the world's metropolises Paris and New York just as much his subject as beach idylls and the exotic animal world. The artist first applies motif directly to the canvas. Afterwards, he attaches an acrylic glass plate above the original motif and paints it by hand in X-ray style.
Depiction of typical scenes from daily life in painting, whereby a distinction can be made between peasant, bourgeois and courtly genres.
The genre reached its peak and immense popularity in Dutch paintings of the 17th century. In the 18th century, especially in France, the courtly-galant painting became prominent while in Germany the bourgeois character was emphasised.
