Jardin secret petit format (2016) Painting by Emmanuelle Pellet

Painter, illustrator, author, art historian and associate professor of Plastic Arts, Emmanuelle Pellet studied at the Ecole du Louvre and at La Sorbonne in Paris. She taught from college to university before directing the educational action of the Louvre Museum for ten years.

She has lived in Luxembourg, Mauritius, Singapore, and is currently based in Aix-en-Provence where she devotes herself fully to painting.

The heroes of his paintings live without angelism in a disenchanted world. She sketches them tenderly, caresses their features with her soft, fine brushes, repairs their flaws by giving them a luster they could not have hoped for, as if to allow them to slip into the unreasoning catalog of a famous master, or on the picture rails of a museum. These smooth fictions like distorting mirrors invite the viewer, between laughter and tears, devotion and provocation, to reflect on the boundaries of taste, culture, reality, life.

Emmanuelle Pellet is a member of the Taylor Foundation, represented by several online galleries. She is regularly exhibited in art galleries and her paintings are present in private collections around the world.
