Art Sanctuary Welcomes Guy Deltour


Magic in a Philosopher's Stone
I know of a big and beautiful forest, and in this forest there is a castle, and in the castle there lives a man. This man is the king of all the lands as far as the eye can see.
At the edge of this beautiful forest, there lives another man. This man is not a king, and he doesn't live in a castle, and and he certainly doesn't rule over any lands. But all of the forest echoes his presence - Spring and Summer, Autumn and Winter – it is him you will hear; As the hardest stone is molded and shaped, the chisel is singing, as the philosopher's stone is springing to life.


Ce sculpteur de pierre bleue est en symbiose avec la nature au milieu de laquelle il vit et crée son œuvre.
Guy Deltour dégrossit ce minéral jurassique des carrières environnantes avec la ferveur organique d'un troglodyte.
Et les achève avec la finesse d'un philosophe de l'art du 21 ème siècle.
Les livres qui l'instruisent et les machines qui l'aident à réaliser ses créations sont aussi source d'inspiration et thèmes principaux de ses sculptures.
Un artiste dans l'âme et les tripes, dont le dernier mot est loin d'être dit.

David De Graef
