Artist Arnaud Quercy Presents “Research on Harmony” at Salon Metamorphose, Paris
Arnaud Quercy presents “Research on Harmony” at Salon Metamorphose, Paris. Each painting translates a musical chord into color through ideamorphism. Halle des Blancs-Manteaux, December 26 – January 4.
Paris, France, January 03, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Visual artist shows new works built from musical chords.
French artist Arnaud Quercy is showing works from his "Research on Harmony" series at Salon Métamorphose, held at the Halle des Blancs-Manteaux from December 26, 2025 through January 4, 2026.
Each painting starts from a chord — D minor, C major, E flat. A rule set in advance assigns a colour to every pitch, and the canvas is nothing other than that rule carried out. Quercy calls the method "ideamorphism." Nothing crosses from the music to the painting: what passes between them is the rule itself, executed twice in two materials with nothing in common.
"What if chords had colours? Stand here. The answer is yours to create."
Quercy trained at the Paris College of Music and was a finalist in the Maurice Ravel International Competition. He also performs as a jazz pianist with Elements Jazz. His visual practice does not illustrate that background — it applies to colour the same kind of constraint a composer applies to a score.
Salon Métamorphose takes place at the Halle des Blancs-Manteaux, 48 rue Vieille du Temple, in the Marais. Open through January 4, 2026.
