Highly influential and I think the hourloupe period was integrated into a lot of design ideas at the time; we have all seen ephemeral images scattered, but have difficulty tracing it to its source. That Frieze magazine article was not compelling on his work, but as with most things from france its an extremely complicated story and a proper discussion on him ideally should be linked to Sartre and Camus, Deleuze etc. Helas, lack of time Yes, he was everywhere, and under the radar so to speak.

I used to doodle a lot like Le bariole Mariole, even made some cut outs with the material. Totally grasp the use of thick material and other crude graphic techniques to give sense of interiority and exteriority. I never had training and was in a different school/system every year, so i was naturally crude myself. My aim apart from doodling was to render the static thing in convolution or involuted until it seemed continuous, but had reached a limit. Then, whatever it was, it was done. It was very satisfying. I was this way for a year then stopped. I miss it. -mason i like almost all his styles. the Hourloupe stuff really works for me. i’m sure i’ve seen some of this before.
