Dives and paintings
Underwater painting number 187 has been found, thanks to David Rose. It was painted in 1991 in Eilat, Israel.
From shadow to light, two paintings deciphered
The first was produced in front of a camera in December 2017, a premonitory cave exit.
The second work with a lot of material is the final one produced by the master of blue in June 2018. A final dive into the depths with this atypical cave entrance, going from sky blue, starry with mauve, to night blue so characteristic of Laban.
Two mirrored canvases, perfect symmetry, a whole symbolism, the water above and the water below, a connection that we could only make in hindsight.
Thanks to Jean-Michel Mille and Frederic Falzon for their contribution, a dive site of Andre Laban identified at Bateguier North on Sainte-Marguerite island.
A new painting discovered, produced in 1985 at La Fourmigue, Golfe Juan.
Thanks to JL Pluchon.
Painting made in 1983 in the Arche du Bec de Sormiou, Calanques de Marseille, thanks to Xavier Huet for his testimony.
