Is a copyist an artist? What is the significance of a copy as opposed to a reproduction or poster? For Martial Gérez, asking the question regarding the significance of a copy involves questioning our intimate relationship, individual and personal, with an image. In this sense, the work of Anne-Marie Mallet is a pure demonstration of a journey deep into a work of art and the rendering of this journey, which can take hours, days or even months.
