Angelo Abrate (1900-1985), dit Ange Abrate, fait partie des grandes figures de la peinture de montagne du 20\u00e8me si\u00e8cle.
\nOriginaire de Turin, il s\u2019installe \u00e0 Chamonix puis \u00e0 Sallanches \u00e0 partir de 1933. L\u2019exposition, pr\u00e9sent\u00e9e \u00e0 La Cure \u00e0 Saint-Gervais, retrace le parcours artistique de cet autodidacte, peintre et alpiniste, amoureux des montagnes.
\nPar des jeux de mati\u00e8res, face aux paysages qu\u2019il peint, Ange Abrate s\u2019approche des artistes contemporains qu\u2019il conna\u00eet, regarde et admire. A travers une trentaine d’\u0153uvres issues de collections publiques et priv\u00e9es, elle met en avant les peintures illustrant le massif du mont Blanc qu\u2019il a arpent\u00e9 tout au long de sa vie, mais aussi d\u2019autres sommets alpins qu\u2019il a gravis et les calanques qui lui sont ch\u00e8res. Sous la neige ou le soleil de midi, au coucher ou au lever du soleil, pinceaux et couteaux esquissent la verticalit\u00e9, la pente, les jeux de lumi\u00e8res et de couleurs qui s\u2019y dessinent. Tout au long de sa carri\u00e8re, Ange Abrate a cherch\u00e9 \u00e0 repr\u00e9senter l\u2019eau sous toutes ses formes, solide, liquide, gazeuse, pour saisir la nature qui l\u2019accueille. L\u2019exposition \u201cAnge Abrate, peintre des sommets\u201d pr\u00e9sente ainsi une \u0153uvre originale, sinc\u00e8re et joyeuse, \u00e0 l\u2019image des paysages qu\u2019il ch\u00e9rit.
