Les Graphiquants
& collect
Les Graphiquants, studio de design graphique fondé en 2008 à Paris. Quatuor aux profils hétéroclites, Romain Rachlin, Maxime Tétard, Cyril Taieb et François Dubois s´accordent sur l´élaboration de signes graphiques, abstraits, poétiques, exigeants, typographiques, noirs et blancs, colorés parfois mais c´est rare, sensibles, toujours porteurs de sens, construits avec un rien de maniérisme. Une fantaisie prise au sérieux, délicatement brutale et ornementale, adossée à une méthodologie de travail rigoureuse. Graphisme, dessin de caractères, photographie, production vidéo et développement multimédia sont autant d´univers et de pratiques que le studio confronte et associe pour Centre Pompidou-Metz, Centre Pompidou Paris, Centre National des Arts Plastiques Sèvres, Cité de la céramique, CCN Ballet de Lorraine, Biennale de Danse de Lyon, Familistère de Guise, Fonds Municipal d´Art Contemporain, Culture France, Biennale Musiques en scène / Lyon, Rennes Métropole, Ateliers d´Art de France, Le Comité Colbert, Pinault Collection, Pschent, Christian Dior, Codage, Sony / Universal, Cuir à Paris, Polit BNP Paribas, Canal +, Elle Déco Lab, Radio France, Métrobus, Min. de la culture et de la communication, Éditions Pyramid, Laa Loci Anima, Arte Charpentier, SCAU, Joly & Loiret, Stéphane Malka, Nicolas Delprat, Benjamin Graindorge, Ward Ivan Rafik, Camille Hermand, A. Roussopoulos, Sebastiao Salgado, Joan Ayrton, Miller Levi, Slove, Galerie Baudouin Lebon, Galerie Lazarew, Galerie Kamchatka, Le Mur (association).
