Find out all the latest news about the artist, Philippe Pastor, including upcoming exhibitions, his most recent works and a retrospective of his paintings. Philippe Pastor is a self-taught artist. His painting is done using pigments on paper. Through his painting and his sculptures, he brings us his perspective on human society. “I paint what I see in society around me.” Observing the world and feelings of rebellion against its destruction, as well as mankind's behavior, sadness, despair or beauty, loneliness and alienation, are also sources of inspiration.

The “The Burned Trees”, sculptures that symbolise the destruction of our forests, echo his series of paintings on paper. Done using charred tree trunks from the Garde Freinet forest (in the Maures mountains, Var region, southern France), which was devastated during the summer of 2003 by fires resulting from both criminal action and negligence, these sculptures give a sort of renewed life to these august trees, some of which are hundreds of years old.

The artist supports the United Nations Environment Programme and its Plant for the Planet campaign: the Billion Tree Campaign is a worldwide effort to combat climate change at the local level and is supported by Wangari Maathai - winner of the Nobel Peace Prize and founder of the Green Belt Movement, and by by His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco, along with specialists in agroforestry. A number of exhibitions of the Burned Trees are thus being shown throughout the world, all part of the Plant for the Planet campaign.
