(Le Journal des Poètes)
"More than the macroscopic of the surreal, Jean-Pierre Vallotton explores
the microscopic of hyperreality. In fact, if there is one single element in
this complex poetry that stands out, it is precisely the absence of
anything obvious. Yet his idiosyncratic poetic structure never disrupts its
symbolic density. Behind the irregularity of forms, there is recurrence,
tempo, permanency of pursuit. Where other poets of his generation
developed strategies of deconstruction, Vallotton invented a brave new
mosaic with the parameters left behind by traditionalism, modernism
and postmodernism. If William Wordsworth, Oscar Wilde, T.S. Eliot
are considered decadent, then so is |
