INTRODUCING DAROCHA
PRÉSENTATION DE DAROCHA

« Meet smiling Luis Darocha, born in 1945, in Porto, Portugal, now based in Paris –– » [applauds]
(« Je vous présente le sémillant Luis Darocha, né en 1945, à Porto, au Portugal, résident à Paris –— »
[applaudissements]...
Thank you.
The man is
(C’est)
: a multimedia artist
unpredictable in any medium theme style and material
on any inspiring surface
(un artiste multimedia imprévisible dans quelque médium thème, style et matériau que ce soit
sur toute surface inspiratrice)

:: a stoical philosopher
with epicurian tastes and leisures
loving everything good and beautiful
earth has to give
which makes much as he’s always on for a new look on skies and mountains, women and trees, seas and shores, colours and shapes, words and silences
(un philosophe stoïcien aux goûts et loisirs épicuriens
aimant tout ce que la terre a de bon et de beau à donner
ce qui fait beaucoup lorsqu’on est toujours comme lui en quête d’un nouveau regard sur les cieux et les montagnes, les femmes et les arbres, les mers et les rivages, les couleurs et les formes, les mots et les silences)

::: a poet of the metamorphosis of everything
in the narrative hieroglyphical icons
from other times and places
of a playful
Ibero-Celtic
and idiosyncraticaly mythological
« paranoïa critique »
would even say some savvy critic
(un poète de la métamorphose de toute chose
en icônes hiéroglyphiques narratives
venues d’autres temps et lieux d’une « paranoïa critique » ibéro-celtique et mythologique espiègle et des plus personnelles dirait même un critique averti)

and last but not least
he is a witty and very generous gentleman
with the aristocratic manners
now disappearing everywhere in the world
of a Lord in Dreamland
(et last but not least
c’est un honnête homme spirituel et généreux aux manières aristocratiques en voie de disparition partout dans le monde d’un Lord au Pays des rêves)

Richard Crevier
