#actiondatepaintings by Thierry Geoffroy, questioning the painting and its potential to generate a transformation

A text by Tijana Mišković published 28/08/2016

The painting is a date for a rendez vous for future actions painted on a canvas. Like art a retardement, the effect of the artworks is being programmed to take place in the future. The usage of # moves the life of this artwork from the museum room to the internet where the rendez vous date can become a chain on-line communication circulated globally with a #.
De toile en toile (from canvas to the internet) is not only a word play for Thierry Geoffroy/ COLONEL, it is also a continuation of a reflection on what is the painting and its potential as a metaphor for contemporary art.

Already in his earlier works such as Too Late and Retard, the canvas has been used to question the ability of contemporary art to be in time.

For the, #actiondatepaintings, the artist chooses a less defeatist approach to the potential of art to gather people around a projected goal. The canvas, in this case, becomes a tool for communicating a prospect and anticipating hope that can get people together, very similar to the way banners are used in protest movements. Can a # on canvas gather people in a collective action?
