Resumed art-oriented activities after intensive, strenuous physiotherapy.1996 : piano instructor at Mstislav Rostropovitch School of Music in St. Tropez. 1997 : moved to Paris, working with various special events corporations & thus gaining stage- management skills ;Travelled extensively throughout Europe (Milan, Madrid, Stuttgart, Leipzig, …)Gained insight into the world of painting via the Louvre Museum & Beaubourg Cultural Center, and painting frequently in-between business trips. 1999 : returned to Cannes, resumed Higher Education studies & graduated in Corporate Communication, Nice-Sophia Antipolis University. Resumed regular mountain sports activities, venturing into high rock climbing in the Verdon Gorges (Alpes de Haute Provence) Met painter Gérald Thupinier. Gained in-depth painting technique through duplicating masterpieces by Picasso, Lempicka, Hélion, Raphaël…
Directed several shows including a 2001 International Tap Dance Festival in Valbonne (French Riviera), featuring brother Alexandre, 3 times French Tap Dance Champion.

Also a regular columnist with various print media & national magazines, & manager of local mountaineering monthly journal : Artif Session. Met painter / sculptor Edmond Vernassa. 2004 : settled down in Contes, renovated premises into artist’s studio, hence painting with greater commitment.

In the footsteps of Soulage, Hartung & Pollock, Rodolphe Cosimi launched into deeper personal.quest, as exemplified in “Coulures” (Colourmarks). These mineral-like colourmarks are now part & parcel of artistic self-expression. His experimenting with motion, fluidity, combinations resulting from a specific technique now impulses progressive knowledge of self, the others, time & space.

This is what Rodolphe COSIMI’s work hinges on.

“In our ever changing world, art & mankind feed on novelty of experimentation, taking them to places they wouldn’t venture to before & penetrating further each time into daunting strangeness. “Coulures” (Colourmarks) can be equated with man’s own confrontation with the world he belongs to, experiencing rejection, attraction, bewilderment…

2007 (Feb) : wrote & published Coulures (Colourmarks), (Aria’s Publishing House)

Rodolphe COSIMI now devotes his time to painting, writing, all of those passions remaining closely-knit in his dedicated quest for self-fulfillment.

Nada Franka Love Cloud

Several years of making all sort of plans of revenge to the ex-husband for having sexually abused our son and subsequently trying to heal spiritually and emotionally by attempting to forgive in my heart with aim to free myself have resulted in an silent talk with God that night. I must say that my previous communication to the Almighty during that years were filled with accusation. I have been arguing with Him all the time. Why would He keep torturing and putting me in a really bad situation…See More
