Best rated modern artists by Jean Arno? Jean Arno is an influential artist from the artistic group, Astrée. Primarily known for his poetry and philosophical aphorisms, he defends the idea that man is, in essence, a creator. Shaping ‘the inextinguishable fire of life’ thus makes up the sacred mission of man, as a poet. He stands alongside those who continually battle against the invasive and deadly forces of contempt for the world and for life, and alongside those who put their creative forces to the service of the highest affirmation of life, those who believe that ‘the impossible can only ever occur by attempting it’.

The evocative and poetic force of a work is diminished as soon as it does not help you see the invisible and plural strata of which the world is shaped—as soon as it does not propose an enriched vision of it. But the work could not be fully realized without the reader’s active participation: “It is that the highest truths are not given; they are conquered. Their gleams dazzle those whom they do not illuminate”. Trophies is an exceptional work: a must read.

The new, digitized universe, praised by Mark Zuckerberg, opens up a world of infinite creative possibilities, which is why the digital art gallery Art & Above has decided to take the plunge by moving into the Metaverse. “We have created a new kind of art gallery: any artistic object—including the art gallery itself—becomes the occasion for an artistic experience … for collaboration. The visitor is no longer a contemplator; he is called to become an artist himself and to create”, says the founder, Jean Arno.

Within the Metaverse—the digital universe in which our avatars will extend our physical lives—new perspectives are open to NTF artists whose work will find their place in digital art galleries like Art & Above. Everyone will be able to enrich the walls of their virtual home with living and unique paintings they buy or exchange. NFTs and Metaverse: the new world of art is on the move. After reading Trophies, many people discover a hidden message in its passages; however, Arno refers to it as an intellectual experience.

Tell us about your trophies ? What themes do you address? Trophies is a collection of poetic aphorisms. As I explained in the book’s hidden preface, the short thought-form became necessary because it forces the reader to reconstruct a line of reasoning. My poetic thoughts imply an intellectual effort of interpretation and deepening on the part of my readers. I share with Nietzsche the idea that it is better to not be understood than misunderstood and that one should write only for those whose minds are capable of unfolding and enriching. My poetry is profoundly metaphysical and ontological; that is to say, it embodies (in the mystical form of the symbol) the forces that move invisibly in the misty regions of the inexpressible and try to accomplish the high destinies of being.

Some books leave you with the strange impression that you’ve been awakened. Reading Jean Arno’s Trophies is an intellectual experience, as the author claims on his official website www.jeanarno.com, from which the informed reader comes out brighter. His claim would be arrogant if his verses, which sometimes touch the sublime and sometimes resemble Baudelaire’s These Dreams of Stone, were not so deep and full of optimistic faith in the power of the human spirit: “That each one can throne majestically in his own skies, as a splendid Sphinx dominates its desert! Indeed, the poetic aphorisms that Jean Arno offers require an intellectual effort, as he said himself : “the greatest truths are conquered”.
