With 40 years of experience in the world of communication, Thierry Clauson is an image-maker in constant search of novelties. After an academic training at the Decorative Arts and Fine Arts of Geneva, he explores techniques merging the aesthetics of painting, photography, cinema or press cartoons. His curiosity is also illustrated through his fields of activity. We find him, in fact, as artistic director at events such as the 100th anniversary of the CEI in Berlin, in a fashion show for a prestigious brand of coffee or in a joint exhibition with Hans Ruedi Giger the artist of "Alien" in a gallery in Zurich.

"ART/CLAUSON" is constructed as a perspective of his work as an artist. Like a narrative diagram, the subjects and techniques are articulated and allow us to observe the various choices and inspirations of this artist who creates with his time. In a society that tends towards dematerialization, after charcoal, oil painting and airbrushing, Thierry Clauson is part of digital art using 3D imagery.

As a common thread, a unique sensitivity and an attraction for singularity giving birth to an offbeat universe of its own. On one side a dancer, on the other a joust within the framework of a futuristic Hong Kong then, a parade on a submarine; as many works as opportunities to tell a story.
