Poetry-Panting. Frederic Amat’s Interview
Abstract
Frederic Amat (1952) is a international reference in contemporary art. His interdisciplinary work shows how expressive means are in continuous change and transformation. His work, from painting to video, scenography or cinematography, is not classifiable.
This interview (may 2011) is focused on the way Frederic Amat uses the relation between literature and painting in his work, in how he approaches the relationship between different arts. He gives us the clue to his understanding of inter-artistic relations and his general view of art, an art with no barriers. He shares with us his experience as a reader and he shows us his living as a painter. He answered our questions from his own experience relating different arts, with the truth that grows from the emotion of feeling. This is not only an invaluable document in the study and research of the relation between arts but also a pleasure to read; It is, thus, a luxury and a privilege to have had the opportunity to talk to make this interview.
