Preoccupied with the idea of vision and that of time, whose issues he brings together in the concept of visiotime, Philippe Hurteau rises up against those who do not conceive "that one can make a painting, a real one, from video or television images, or from images stolen from the Internet." And he is right. Especially since he brandishes like a manifesto the words of Baudelaire defining for half the modernity by "the transitory, the fugitive, the contingent" and the other by "the eternal and the immutable".
