Notes

« L’idée du mythe comme sujet d’expression dans mon travail commence lorsqu’un jour étudiant aux Beaux-arts de Saint-Etienne, j’ai franchi par curiosité la porte des combles de l’école. Là, on avait stocké depuis Mai 68 toutes les copies en plâtre des sculptures de toutes époques qui servaient auparavant de modèles aux étudiants…/… la contemporanéité de cette disposition, fruit du hasard, était devenue du coup le point de départ d’une série de reflexions.je pensais alors que certaines idées ou événements pouvaient se glisser sur le temps, changer d’espace, se répéter de façon continue et ‘‘permanente‘‘…/… Depuis je me suis efforcé à l’exploration de mes divers sens possibles, à exciter des souvenirs de mon imagination, où l’osé le plus banal se transforme en mythe, où le sens ultime, suggéré seulement, demeure inaccessible bien que prochain… » Christos Kalfas Saint-Etienne, Octobre 1995 « …Chaque oeuvre de Christos Kalfas est un texte puisque c’est la narration d’une histoire. Ses éléments constitutifs sont les gestes, les mouvements ou les postures des silhouettes, dont la répartition guide le regard et dont le cumul complète la production de sens. Charme et mystère réveillent et nourrissent l’imagination du spectateur au travers de ses silhouettes énigmatiques continuellement changeantes. Nous pouvons reconnaître dans l’oeuvre de Christos Kalfas la dimension d’une double identité, d’une entité double, d’un chemin qui bifurque. L’importance de cette duplication est très grande si l’on prend en considération le rapport si particulier de l’artiste avec son oeuvre et son équilibre fragile dans le monde… » Hélène Ahanassiou (extrait) Christos Kalfa « insinuer », Le jeu allégorique du sens, Ed. Fondation des Arts Plastiques Tsichritzis, Kifissia.
