Philippe-Henry Lathimier du Clésier
Globally renowned artist, activist and educator of minors prisoners, Antonio Veronese's paintings and photographs connect with the soul, conveying pure, powerful emotion beyond words.
Indeed in the eyes of history, Antonio Veronese is a true, rare Master. His imagery is saturated with feeling – each glimpse and viewing rekindles within our souls recognition of and affinity to someone – and sometimes more than one – who is or has been present and meaningful in our lives. Antonio Veronese’s art is dizzying and rich with feeling. To me his paintings and photographs fly free from the soul, always giving honor and love to your subjects. Thank you, Veronese, for warming my heart. As Rilke: “The inner- what is it if not intensified sky, hurled through with birds and deep with the winds of homecoming ”. Thank you, I am humbled. -Master photographer Robert Zuckerman

Antonio Veronese is a complete artiste, in whom aesthetic concerns merge with humanistic qualities. It focuses essentially on the human been or on the human condition, in its deepest suffering: the sons of Eve exiled in our valley of tears. His preference for the heads denotes that it is only through this heads that he can tame the horror … the horror of the human condition. In the dialogue of Timeous, Plato affirms: « The human head is the image of the world. (Francisco Brennand, painter and sculptor)

Veronese au Carrousel du Louvre- Paris, 2014
Artiste de renommée mondiale, activiste et éducateur de mineurs détenus, les tableaux d’Antonio Veronese se connectent à l’âme, transmettant une émotion pure et puissante au-delà des mots. En effet aux yeux de l’histoire, Antonio Veronese est un vrai et rare Maître. Son imagerie est saturée de sentiments – chaque aperçu et visionnement ravivent dans notre âme la reconnaissance et l’affinité pour quelqu’un – et parfois plus d’un – qui est ou a été présent et significatif dans nos vies. L’art d’Antonio Veronese est vertigineux et riche en émotions. Pour moi, ses peintures et photographies volent librement de l’âme, donnant toujours honneur et amour à vos sujets. Merci, Véronèse, d’avoir réchauffé mon cœur. Comme Rilke: « L’intérieur – qu’est-ce sinon le ciel sinon intensifié, traversé d’oiseaux et plongé dans les vents du retour chez nous ». Merci, I’m humbled! -(Photographe Robert Zuckerman)
Carrousel du Louvre, Paris, 2014
I often hear that Veronese’s faces evoke child prisoners in Brazil. But this is a reductive idea! It is true that her closeness for years with these distressed children has strongly marked her painting, but what it releases is deeper and more complex. In reality, it is our perplexity painted by Veronese, our helplessness in the face of life and the world today. That’s why he’s beyond fashion, that’s why it’s a classic. It was lacking in our time, poisoned by galloping abstractionism and the nihilism of conceptual art, someone who draws the face of contemporaneity. That’s exactly what Veronese is doing. (Modesto Lanzone)

Veronese peint des visages. Ses portraits ne relèvent pas de l’apparence, du mondain, de l’avantageux. Ils ne cherchent pas à plaire ou à faire bonne figure, aucun ne refrène un sourire. Ils semblent réclamer de nous une fraternité perdue, que nous ne pouvons leur donner. Et soudain, nous nous reconnaissons, chacun de nous prisonnier de soi-même. Ces visages sont les nôtres: sous le pinceau de Veronese, nous sommes tous Dorian Gray -Antoine Arsan, écrivain. *Auteur de Rien de trop · Eloge du haïku(Gallimard, 2017).
