Daniel You

Daniel You, the son of a Vietnamese father and a French mother, lives and works in Paris. He believes that "painting is a language that I need to speak. Human nature reveals all the landscapes of the world. When I paint humans, I paint nature."

You paints on the border of dream and reality, and in his work, he expresses the balance between force and sensuality, poise and movement. He maintains that when you observe the immobile figures he paints you discover that they breath. When you listen to the silence of the canvas you will hear their cry. You was recommended to the Selection Committee by 2000 Sport Artist of the Year Charles Billich.
