Info
Pauline Guerrier, a contemporary artist, operates between the cities of Paris and Lisbon. She was born in 1990 in Clamart, within a family of passionate artists. The artistic influence of her father, a sculptor, and her mother, a choreographer, as well as that of her grandmother, a ceramist, and her grandfather, a painter, shaped her path from a very young age.
In 2009, she joined the Beaux-Arts de Paris, where she began her studies in Giuseppe Penone’s studio for her first three years, then joined Ann Veronica Janssen’s studio until she graduated with her 5th-year diploma in June 2014.
Pauline Guerrier embodies a nomadic spirit, setting up her studio during her travels through Italy, Morocco, Portugal, Chile, Benin, and Senegal. She draws inspiration and knowledge from these journeys by collaborating with weavers, glassblowers, engravers, glassmakers, and mosaic artists.
In her tireless quest to master the world’s craft techniques, Pauline Guerrier juxtaposes ancestral knowledge with contemporary issues, exploring themes such as ecology, science, faith, and superstition.
She expresses herself through various art forms, from drawing to sculpture, and even performance. For her, the artistic medium is merely a vehicle for a message, a language composed of an alphabet of symbols meant to convey profound ideas.
Today, Pauline Guerrier is a recognized artist, exhibiting in prestigious international art fairs such as Art Paris, Art Genève, ArcoLisboa, Arco Madrid, Istanbul Art Fair, Sp-Arte São Paulo, PAD, and Parcours Saint-Germain. Her work is displayed in various institutions and collections, from Villa Datris to the Fondation Zinsou in Benin, through the Domaine des Étangs, MOCO in Montpellier, Artissima collection, Château La Coste, and the Cobra Museum in Amsterdam. Her artistic career is firmly established through her representation by the Foco gallery in Lisbon for four years, as well as her collaborations with the RX gallery and Clavé Fine Art gallery in Paris.
