Discover the contemporary work of Marie LANDREAU

"Marie Landreau's painting charms you right away thanks to the subtle wide range of her sparkling colors. Her expressionist painting brings us beyond to a marvellous and dreamy world of transparencies and iridescences : she leads us, according to her changing fancies, into a tortured or calm mood.Marie Landreau looks for the harmony inside the instability of a plant, a musician or a moving dancer : her very personal work makes deliberatly short-lived subjects such as a light, a gesture, a sound become eternal."Pierre-Yves Mérand"... Her iris, orchids, provençal markets... quiver with sensations, emotions and refined delights that tell a lot about Marie Landreau's perceptions".Thierry MartinBorn in France, in the "Pays de Loire" region in 1958, Marie Landreau actually lives in the "Cevennes" region where she's established her studio. Watercolorist for years, she now regains brightness ans transparency in her oil painting work, thanks to game of glaze on a thin, yet dynamic material. Her subjects are a way to transmit the vibrations, the emotion and the magic of the instant. She's always been surrounded by flowers, so they take up a special place in her art.Personal recent exhibitions : "Light and transparency" in 2006 in la Grande Motte - "Fire and light" Terre et Toiles gallery in 2007.
