BIBLIO-LABYRINTHES ARCANES
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">BIBLIO-LABYRINTHES ARCANES" - oeuvres de Ben J. Gross<br><br><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/56453/7894e458eb8cfc2c733a994f5cea3aae87a03bc9/original/img-7235.jpg?1403270440" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></span>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify; font-family: Helvetica;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">Ben J. Gross est né à Londres en 1976. Il peint depuis ses plus jeunes années. Diplômé en littérature à l'Université de Leeds (Angleterre) en 1999, il tombe amoureux de la lumière languedocienne et s'installe dans les Hautes-Corbières où ses passions pour la peinture et la musique s'affirment.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify; font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 14px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify; font-family: Helvetica;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">Influencé à travers son parcours artistique par Chagall, de Chirico, Bosch, Bacon, Dali etc. ses oeuvres évoquent souvent des thèmes mythologiques, bibliques, littéraires, mais il refuse de se cantonner a une catégorie stylistique.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify; font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 14px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify; font-family: Helvetica;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">Depuis 5 ans son travail s'alimente souvent de l'iconographie des lames de tarot anciennes. Le hasard lui mène à peindre un "MAT" en 2009; 4 ans plus tard il termine sa première série des 22 arcanes majeurs, peint en huile sur toile - baptisée "Tarot del Boig", oeuvres qui se trouve actuellement dans une collection privée à Gérone. L'artiste entame ensuite une deuxième série, "Major Arcana Revisited", achevée en octobre 2014, dans le but de scruter les symboles pictographiques, et faire dialoguer les traits de gravure grossier du Tarot de Marseille avec la fine technique d'enluminure qui rappelle l'ancien Tarot Visconte de Milan. Il se rend compte que cette étude rigoureuse, avec ses contraintes et ses anomalies, est au coeur de sa démarche de représentation figurative, une sorte d'épreuve d'initiation artistique.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify; font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 14px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify; font-family: Helvetica;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">Fils d'antiquaire, sa curiosité insatiable lui a fait passer des heures dans des librairies poussiéreuses. Passionné de la littérature et de l'étymologie, Ben J. Gross n'hésites pas à faire l'amalgame avec sa peinture, et s'appuie sur la structure des étagères pour mettre en scène ses sujets. Même des personnages sorties des lames de Tarot se promènent et se croisent dans des ruelles entre les livres. </span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify; font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 14px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify; font-family: Helvetica;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">"La bibliothèque est comme un labyrinthe où se rencontre tous mes thèmes : la mythologie, les mots, les mondes souterrains, l'arcane. Sur les étagères, je peux réconcilier verticale avec horizontale, couleur avec forme, encre avec huile, abstrait avec figuratif... On dit en anglais "A picture paints a thousand words" (un tableau peints mille mots); c'est cette relation entre la parole et l'image, le signe et le signifié, qui m'intéresse. Bibliothèques hantées par des mots, où les profondeurs des coulisses, eux-mêmes paysages intérieurs regorgeant de mémoire collective, me suggèrent intrigues et énigmes. Comme dans un tirage de cartes de Tarot, les histoires qui s'y cachent sont aussi multiples que leurs lecteurs; de la même manière j'invite chaque spectateur, muni de son propre fil d'Ariane, à se promener dans les Biblio-Labyrinthes."</span></p>

<span class="font_large"><strong>XVIIII • LE SOLEIL<br> / Indian ink & gouache on fine 320g watercolor paper / <br> / 15 x 30 cm / <br> / 7-10th August 2014 /</strong></span><br> </div>
<div> It is said that one should never interrogate the Tarot on its own nature, at risk of going mad. Too late, the project’s underway, and I realise that the goal is neither to produce an original work, nor to pay hommage to an artistic tradition, but the interrogation itself of the Arcana, one by one, as though they were looking into the infinite mirror of themselves. This narrative card-reading should not be in any way divinatory - I moderate that temptation with the quote : “superstition brings bad luck”.<br><br>The Sun - LE SOLEI-IL - the son - a most paternal card if not a patriarchial one. The eighth card selected “at random” in my narrative interrogation of the Tarot de Marseilles, and no. 19 of the Arcana Major.<br><br>It was mostly carried out during good holiday-time in a campsite at the foot of the Canigou, sacred mountain of Catalunya. Which works well, given the dominant red and gold colours of the sun and the wall.<br><br>Note : the stubborn refusal (once again) of the Sun and the protagonists to adhere to any kind of predictable symmetry. As I painstakingly copy even the “errors and anomalies”, I begin to glimpse a subtextual language in which each stroke and each empty space are invested with symbolic potential.<br><br>Erstwhile known as “LA CANICVLA” (heat-wave), the cross-eyed Sun recalls the the devilish sphinx atop the Wheel of Fortune. The relationship between the two figures is complex, but tender and human.<br><br>The next card is already underway. I can reveal, it’s not a numerological suite, but it certainly is a logical one, narratively speaking...<br><br>I must’ve been mad to start this trip !<br><br>WHO’S NEXT ?<br><br>http://benjosephgross.net</div>

The original word Bateleur is medieval French, signifying a person who shows off his manual and verbal dexterity in market-places, a specialist in subtle and supple movements. Kind of like a modern day street-performer. Maybe this is how Bateleur became Magician, performing optical illusions and manual wizardry.</span><br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">I picked the card (at random, as usual) after coming down off the Wheel,and back from the Star, around the 23rd July, but started and finished the card on the 29th-30th. Why the wait? After all, being one of my favourite cards, I had been impatient to pick it out. Imaginary hurdles and real-world obstacles delayed starting. Moreover, I was getting side-tracked, taking on other unnecessary work, deciding to record a song, thinking about other art projects. </span><br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">Le Bateleur is a call-to-action, but also obliges decision-making and commitment to the choice taken. When I got round to starting it, I realised that the card and the project as a whole would only happen with that commitment. While everything is possible, it is not possible to do and be everything at once. With that realisation, and having post-poned or cancelled the noise, all the tools became at my disposition, like the tools spread out before the character.</span><br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">The Tarot being a mirror of sorts, I realised I was projecting the role of the artist on to Le Bateleur - he is also a crafts-man, an engineer, a stage compère, a distributor of tracts. He gambles with chance, or possibly fabricates chance itself. After the Roulette of the Wheel of Fortune, here we have the manipulator of dice. Now a third-way through this adventure, is it an accident that the numbers on each of the three faces of the dice add up to 7, when this is the seventh card I have selected ? And three times seven being 21 ...</span><br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">WHO’S NEXT ?</span>

X • L'A•ROVE•DE•FORTVNE

My collaboratrice selected the card (at "random") from the remaining Arcana, immediately after I'd finished with Justice. Interesting, from many angles. This was completed more or less in one day-long session. Aesthetically speaking, it is one of the weirdest cards. The three characters might well have escaped from Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights, along with the mechanism of the wheel which bears a disconcerting resemblance to a torture instrument. The cross-eyed sphinx is garnished with the rare violet color, signifying wisdom, but he/she is not the manipulator of the Wheel - that is the role of the spectator, the card-reader. <br><br>As with Justice, the deceptive asymmetry of the design surprised me - it seems to give the wheel a sense of momentum. Only the point where the handle-bar joins the wheel, adheres to the true geometrical centre of the card.<br><br>Faithful to the medieval Tarot de Marseille, I have reproduced the spelling - another anomaly which I believe is more than a simple mistake (we will examine this in more detail in later posts). The curious apostrophe <strong><em>L'A</em></strong> would make a verb out of a noun. <b>U </b>becomes latinized <strong>V</strong> (not the case in <strong>JUSTICE</strong>). And yes, it looks like the original authors realized they were running out of space with the last 3 letters of <strong>FORTVNE, </strong>and conjoin the letters. The words are separated by the punctuation mark • .<br><br>I worked on this throughout the course of saturday, my atelier / gallery was open to the public. I had, you guessed it, <em>three </em>visits. (That's a good day). The first was a recently-met friend, new in this village, finding his feet here. He often comes by to see the tarot-in-progress. The second (whom I'd never before met) was a totally far-out astronomer-mathematician-mystic-healer-blogger-expert-on-Bugarach and creator of the Quartz Polyhedral Dark Matter Worm-hole Detector. Wow. The third (again, never before met) was a gigantic gentleman, a Ukrainian post-impressionist painter who I learnt lives just round the corner. Curiouser and curiouser - three protagonists in the card, three interesting visitors.<br><br> Finally, (not that I know anything about numerology) the numbers which this project is generating are beginning to look interesting. A résumé :<br> <table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" style="width: 500px;"><tbody> <tr> <td style="text-align: center;">Chronological card order</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Number of the card</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="text-align: center;">1</td> <td style="text-align: center;">7</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="text-align: center;">2</td> <td style="text-align: center;">14</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="text-align: center;">3</td> <td style="text-align: center;">6</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="text-align: center;">4</td> <td style="text-align: center;">8</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="text-align: center;">5</td> <td style="text-align: center;">10</td> </tr>
</tbody></table>
<div>
<br>Now is it just me - or is there something binary going on here ?<br><br>I am about a quarter of a way through this project now, and well ahead of schedule. The next card will require some reflection before the execution. The Wheel of Fortune, appearing at this point in the journey, seems to be telling me that there is still a lot of road ahead, and the most unexpected characters may crop up along the way. It also remind me of the card which began this journey, The Chariot, and I am most reassured to be reminded that my chariot has a spare wheel at the ready ...<br><br>WHO'S NEXT ???<br><br><span style="color:#F0F8FF;"><span class="font_regular"><span class="font_small">La roue tourne ... Ma collaboratrice a sélectionné la lame, la 5ème de ce projet, au "hasard" du restant des arcanes majeurs, aussitôt que j'avais terminé avec La Justice. Très intéressant, dans plusieurs façons. Cette lame a été finie dans une séance plus ou moins ininterrompue d'une journée. De manière esthétique, c'est une des lames les plus bizarres. Les trois personnages anthropomorphes auraient bien pu s'évader du Jardin des Délices de Bosch, sans parler de la roue avec sa ressemblance troublante à un instrument de torture ... Le sphinx qui louche est habillé de violette, rare couleur signifiant la sagesse; cependant ce personnage n'est pas manipulateur de la Roue - ceci est le rôle du lecteur, seul à avoir accès à la manivelle.</span></span></span>
<p><span style="color:#F0F8FF;"><span class="font_small"><span style="font-size: 1em; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 20px;">Tout comme chez La Justice, l'asymétrie coquine du dessin m'a surpris, ça semble donner à la roue son mouvement. Seulement le point où la manivelle rencontre la roue correspond au vrai centre géométrique de la lame.</span><br><br><span style="font-size: 1em; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 20px;">Fidèle au Tarot de Marseille médiéval, j'ai recopié l'orthographe - encore farcie "d'anomalies". Je crois qu'il s'agit de plus qu'une simple erreur. L'apostrophe non-invité L'A détourne un nom en verbe. La lettre U devient V (ce n'est pas le cas chez La JUSTICE). Et oui, on pourrait soupçonner les auteurs originaux d'avoir surestimer la place restante pour les trois dernières lettres de FORTVNE, qui se trouvent conjointes. Les mots sont séparés par les points • (mais pas chez toutes les lames).</span></span></span></p>

J'ai eu, comme par hasard, trois visites pendant la journée (plus que d'habitude). La première, un copain rencontré récemment qui vient de s'installer dans ce village et qui passe parfois pour voir l'évolution du tarot-en-cours. La deuxième (auparavant inconnu à moi) : un parfait perché astronome-mathématicien-mystique-guérisseur-bloggeur-expert-sur-Bugarach-et inventeur du Quartz Polyhédrale Detecteur de Matière Noire. Si i était mythomane, il avait fort conviction dans ses propos et anecdotes. Wow. La troisième (aussi jamais rencontré) : un géant Ukrainien qui malgré ses apparences peint des tableaux post-impressionistes et qui habite à deux pas de mon atelier. De plus en plus curieux ... Les trois protagonistes de la lame, et ces trois visiteurs éclectiques ...</span></span></span></p>

LA JUSTICE</strong><br>30x15cm<br>pen, ink & gouache on watercolor paper<br><br>The card was picked on 15th July, finished on the 18th in the early hours of the morning. <br><br>It's one of those cards I've always been slightly worried by, even bothered by - the character seems at first glance quite cold and characterless. This is part of its perfection - its imperfection. At first one perceives symmetry, equilibrium ... but looking closer, everything is slightly off-set. In the Tarot, perfect symmetry would be a profanity. The color-symbolism complements this notion, particularly <em>chez</em> La Justice. The active parts of the composition are flesh-color, showing the humanity and fallibility of Justice. The scales are slightly off-balance - perhaps owing to the slight play of fingers in the figure's left hand.<br><br>This is the fourth card selected. To recapitulate (for numerological interest) that gives me, in this order :<br><br>1 : 7 <br>2 : 14<br>3 : 6 <br>4 : 8<br><br>My fiancée and collaborator kindly selected the next card, which I am about to begin.

I remember painting my first "The Lovers" under the preconception that it should look like some kind of Valentine's Day card. That's like the preconceptions we might have about "The Devil" or "Death" in particular - but it seems things are less straightforward than that. As Jodorowsky points out, there are many "anomalies" in the Tarot de Marseille. <br><br>The card is in truth entitled "LAMOUREUX" without even an apostrophe after the L. The Lover. Who are the actors in this story? What is this intricate game of hands in the lower half of the card? Is Cupid well-intentioned? While painting these images as faithfully as possible, I can't say I'm finding the answers to these questions - but I am finding plenty more questions. <br><br>Whatever the case, with regards to this project, this card arrives after the mobilisation of The Chariot and the moderation of Temperance, perhaps bringing engagement and reminding me that these images exist thanks to Love itself, and should be reproduced with Love ....<br><br>Who's next ? ...</span>

THE NEW STUDY TAROT DE MARSEILLE after CAMOIN & JODOROWSKY
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="font_large">Pick a Card... Project begins 8th July 2014. 12 weeks to reproduce the 22 Major Arcana of the Tarot de Marseille, no frills, no Chagallesque frolics. So that's 2 cards per week. Is it feasible? In contrast to my first "Tarot del Boig"(which took five years' intermittent work), this new set of Major Arcana will be structurally faithful to the ancient "Tarot de Marseille" (as reference I am using Camoin & Jodorowsky's edition). The details are so precise that I am learning more about the structural symbolism than by reading any book. It is an exercise in timelessness, an discipline of illustrational patience - and a total pleasure. I'll publish the images as they manifest themselves ...</span></div>
