Note : "Benanteur's painting have formal and sensitive beauties, with a strong visual impact, being neither figurative, insofar as the image could replace a photographic object, nor abstract, because they are always rooted within the elements of a deeply observed and felt nature [...] lyrical landscapes, in which the imaginary struggles with deeply buried memories. A floating world, close to that of Chinese painting, in which top and bottom are interchangeable within a limitless space." (Marc Hérissé in Gallerie Claude Lemand, Ed.,Benanteur, Volume 1, 'Prologue', Paris 2002, p. 7)
