ABOUT
Olivier Menge, a contemporary artist who knows very well how to open up in the running time, to the media and technological hubbub that envelops us without leaving aside a certain pictorial memory that he knew in his childhood and adolescence. With all his senses, Olivier Menge soaks up colors, shapes, flavors, smells, which tint and structure our universe, his universe. The artist from Mont-d'Orge is hungry for everything that lives, breathes, moves, walks, flies ... He lives in a fused way with a kind of original flow which is found in his paintings. A polymorphic artist in a way, who knows how to find an identity beyond the plurality of artistic genres that he explores, uses, in which he travels with happiness and joy of living.
