BIO:
Henri Plisson American (February, 1933 - August 20, 2006)
"Painting is elusive. It's very difficult to verbalize, as you're putting into works something that speaks on its own," says the artist Patrick Ryan who adopted the penname of Henri Plisson for his impressionist paintings. "If you think in musical terms, painting is like jazz in that you skirt around the material or subject matter and orchestrate the work so that it can live on its own rather than just be a representational facsimile of something," he added, eager to clarify his terms.
Born in Omaha, Nebraska in the late 1930's, Ryan was educated at the University of Omaha and the University of Southern California, where he obtained his MFA. Trying to explain his kind of impressionism,
Although Plisson painted varied subjects, landscapes, seascapes, still life and figurative, he insisted that his paintings are beyond the recognizable subject. "If a painting is too finished, too exact, it poses limitations on your ability to see it. The image freezes, limiting your illusion. Better to paint the effect of what is there so someone observing the canvas will see the effect of what you saw, not the subject matter you saw. In essence, what you are doing in impressionism is focusing on one thing, but you are painting another. I am painting a visual echo of what I see."
Henri Plisson's technique was intuitive, and together with his extraordinary sense of color, he created vibrant and radiant images which have become even more intense through his feeling of warmth, and element Plisson incorporated into all of his compositions. Serigraphs, as well as oils, by this modern American Impressionist master are currently represented in many important corporate and private collections.
