This panoramic artwork depicts a vast, rugged coastal landscape with a range of striking visual elements. Prominent features include the sweeping curves of the sandy beach, the deep blues of the ocean, and the hazy, atmospheric palette that evokes a sense of distance and scale. The composition is characterized by a layered, textured quality, showcasing the artist's skilled use of light and shadow to create depth and dimension. The subject matter appears to be a remote, windswept coastline, possibly capturing a moment of tranquility or the aftermath of a dramatic event.

Born in 1977 in Brive La Gaillarde, Julien Audebert lives and works in Paris. Whether it be cinema or photography, History is a central subject in his work. It is dialecticized, reconstructed or exhumed, through processes from which emerges the ideology underlying the dominant cultural forms (cinema, media, literature, pictorial genres…) His works often materialize a point of tension or climax of a political or military nature where geographical variables play a particular role.
Since 2019, Julien Audebert has been painting and working on a a series of small works with oil on copper. His most recent series, Obsidionales, consists of small oil paintings on copper following his large-scale battlefield “Nocturnes” (and his recent film Mars and Venus …).

To avoid any narcissism the gallery will not bear a name, but instead mark of the end of a century during which the Fine Arts are exhausted of unknown practices and forms, Art: Concept was born. In 1997, the gallery joined its friends in the 13th district of Paris to be part of the adventure of the brand new rue Louise Weiss. Despite unforgettable years in this district, the move to the Marais was inevitable. Today, the gallery is located in a private passage (passage Sainte Avoye) and represents artists with whom it has been working for 25 years as well as young graduates. Trying to reflect the evolution of society, the gallery emphasises its proposals in a multi-faceted reflection on individuality and collectivity in a wide range of contexts. Like Janus, it looks both to the past and the future. Today's world is so in need of reference points that it's reassuring to invent a future, thanks to artists, as well as to compare it to the past. We invite you to ask for it, we will be at the gallery, very happy to explain it to you. ...
