Feb: Pascal’s Matador in Dive the Big Blue (Singapore)
Dive the Big Blue: A HISTORICAL AFFAIR Vol. 2
These enlightening limited edition coffee table books offer an exhaustive depiction of the diving world, coupled with stunning artwork and photography
Release Date: 03 September 2014.
The water of our planet has always been my muse. It is the source of everything we hold dear. It connects all the people in all the countries of the world. But it’s no longer enough to protect one body of water without thinking about its neighbour. For example, what happens in China impacts the ability of our waters to sustain life throughout the US and the world – and vice versa. Today, we all must work together to ensure a healthy world. We’ve had all the second chances we’re going to get. The health of the planet is directly tied to what we do, right here, right now.

Happy 20th Anniversary The Matador ! Part 4: All versions 1993-2013 suite
In addition to the remakes of the Corrida, and with my taste to play with the masterpieces of the classic artworks… it was fun to place the Matador within others paintings.
They have been published in a special chapter of “Chefs-d’oeuvre/masterpieces by Pascal Lecocq” (Usa, 2011), available online, under the name of ”Self References”.
Excerpt: ” And Pascal did more than one with his signature pic of “The Matador”, as a painting buried in Santa’s sack, hung on wall in a living or a board room, on a poster seen by transparency on a window, or as a sculpture inspired by it at the top of the Colosseum or displaying the famous beach towel made from his masterpiece.”
Larger pics to be published on the social medias this week.
Pascal is a big fan of all paintings depicting a Cabinet of Curiosities like the ones of Frans Francken
the Younger (1581-1642) or Jacques Poirier (1928-2002), the master of the realist
“Trompe l’Oeil”…, or a gallery of paintings like painted by Paolo Panini (1691-1765), or Hubert
Robert (1733-1808)…, intimately making an immemorial chain of artifacts, artworks,
painters to continue…
If one sees Pascal’s connections with collector Sir Joan Soane (1753-1837), writer
Georges Pérec (1936-1982) or filmmaker Peter Greenaway (b.1942), and his wit
playing with riddles, rebuses, alliterations, correspondences, puns, symbols and
numbers, it is logical to end with a painting composed as a matryoshka doll: the
bears look at a billboard, which is a previous Pascal’s painting (“Cuppycake”), which
includes a towel printed on with Pascal’s signature painting “The Matador”.”
