BIO
The thirty-something French artist, engineer and Bucharest resident Anouk Ragot dreams on canvas. Passion for her art was first fostered at a local gallery in the North of France where, in her youth, she learned to draw and paint with oil, watercolor and pastel.
The pastels in her body of work are reflections of these youthful memories.
Through the years, she has continued to refine her technique through coursework at the Royal College of Art in London and the Beaux-Arts in Paris. Her interest in nude drawings concentrated her focus on the power and vulnerability of the female form.
The intimacy of subject and vibrancy of color of her recent work exposes Anouk’s most cherished moments of daily life, which she expresses with an abundance of joy through the mediums of charcoal and paint.
FRANÇAIS
L’artiste et ingénieur, Anouk Ragot, résidente Française de Bucarest, s’évade sur la toile.
Sa passion pour l’art nait très tôt alors qu’elle découvre et s’approprie dessin, peinture à l’huile, aquarelle et pastel dans une petite galerie du nord de la France. Ses œuvres au pastel sont d’ailleurs issues des souvenirs de son enfance.
Elle continue à développer au fil des années sa technique, au Royal College of Art à Londres et aux Beaux-Arts à Paris. En dessinant d’après des modèles vivants, elle apprécie particulièrement le contraste entre la puissance et la vulnérabilité de la Femme.
L’exposition de ses derniers travaux tout en couleurs s’apparente à une ‘mise à nu’, ou l’envie de partager les moments uniques qu’elle vit avec grand bonheur, fusain et peinture à la main !
ROMANIAN
La treizeci de ani, inginera si artista Anouk Ragot, de origine franceza stabilită in Bucuresti, evadează pictând pe pânza.
Pasiunea ei pentru arta se naște de timpuriu cand descoperă si învață desenul, pictura in ulei, acuarela si pastelului si apoi expune lucrări intr-o mica galerie de arta din nordul Franței. De altfel, pastelurile sale au izvorul in amintirile ei din copilărie. De-a lungul anilor artista își va dezvolta si perfecționa tehnica la Royal College of Art din Londra si la Beaux-Arts in Paris.
Folosind modelul viu, Anouk Ragot, sesizează in mod special contrastul dintre forța si vulnerabilitatea femeii.
Expoziția cu picturile sale recente, dezvăluie dorința de a împărtăși momentele unice pe care le trăiește in extaz, in cărbune si culori (pictura in cuțit).
