Tour 5 of 5
From pencil to digital
Notebooks, Gynéphores, digital prints and inks: the research on paper and on screen.
≈ 2 min · 6 works
Alongside the canvases, Roland Buraud never stopped searching on paper: notebooks, studies, series of drawings. At the end of his life, he extended this work with the computer.
