2022 | Sweetnesses of the last trimester The summer was full of small events, short exhibitions and the reorganization of La Chambre Bleue, which can now produce large formats. The new year in cyanography is studious with many applications... Few sure tracks for big exhibitions like those that were cancelled for the last two years, the art world remains cautious, but cyanographies will go back to Japan, and so will I. So the month of October will launch the season of the workshop, the blue magic is reactivated, some orders to honor for the end of the year and ideas to implement. In November and December my cyanographs will be exhibited and sold in several places where the Bleu Nomade workshop regularly camps: in Paris, in Provence, Marseille and Roquefort La Bédoule, in Brittany, in Arradon, in the Morbihan where I also work since this summer. + More info in the coming weeks DEPLI Cyanography by Azul LOEVE 65×50 cm | 2015 | Cyanotype ink on [...]

Durant les confinements, j'avais publié une sorte d'oeuvre-chronique : une image par jour, que ce soit un dessin, une photo, une peinture, sans me limiter à la cyanographie. La seule contrainte, à part le rythme quotidien, c'est le noir et blanc. Par là [...]

Spring 2021... Shuffle ! Change of place, the residency at the Pounche workshop is over, it was time to pack again. My studio moves often, I like to keep the same name to identify all the places where I put my tools... in this case, the "Blue Room". Of course, this name refers to the darkroom of a photo lab, and since I left the Chambre Bleue on rue Charonne in Paris 2 years ago, my workshop could just as well be called "Bleu Nomade"... In the next few days the new workshop will be operational, still in Provence, closer to the Mediterranean. I will be able to restart cyanography, but unfortunately still no teaching workshop, due to the crisis. ... and Brainstorming... Back in lockdown... and here we go for a second loop of annual cancellations: the events that were postponed in 2020 will not take place this year either. The European Crafts Days were to be held in April, I was among [...]

New lockdown, second confinorama After the 55 days of the first Confinorama, a second one has just finish on the account Instagram Azul.Loeve It is a creative challenge that I launched myself in mid-March, to publish one image per day, be it a drawing, a photo, a painting, without limiting myself to cyanography. The only constraint, apart from the daily rhythm, is black and white. Sometimes the exercise became a bit overwhelming, but it allowed me to start a continuous creative thread... in climbing, we [...]
