Agnès Giudicelli
Painting, drawing, sculpture, graphic storytelling« Beyond the techniques of artistic expression, my quest is for the place of women in their environment. »
Being a feminist had gone out of fashion and was synonymous with “virago” until the rise of the #MeToo movement. My work thus resonates with its time.

“In her finely nuanced paintings, Agnès Giudicelli orders and immortalises a universal humanist language. Enlightened mastery and generous energy characterise a rigorous practice and an uncompromising body of work. Her painting is a challenge, a dream to be interpreted, a material to be tamed. For it to take shape, it needs triggering circumstances, a source from which to set out on a long journey…” — Thierry Colin
