Caroline Rennequin Framed Painting 17.7" × 13.8"

Painting with gouache paint on India paper floating in an open, handmade ayous wood frame.

CAROLINE RENNEQUIN, born in 1970, lives and works in Paris.

As a graduate of the École Estienne in 1988, of Duperré in 1990, and of the Decorative Arts in 1993 (all prestigious French Art programs), Caroline Rennequin’s main pastime is as a "set designer" for fashion and luxury brands. She has been the artistic director of the Jérôme Dreyfuss brand since 2007. Before that she worked for Isabel Marant and Annick Goutal. She creates all the decorative installations for the designer's windows and boutiques including sculptures, furniture, paintings and wall drawings.

At the same time, she leads a multidisciplinary personal artistic practice that is inspired by the intimate and the feminine, as well as, the relation between crafts, popular culture, non western art and contemporary art.  These themes are expressed in her latest works inspired by the earthy palette of the Mountain landscape and created expecially for us. The earthy palatte carries through to the brown Ayous wood frames, which she began experiemting with very recentlyin her Ibiza residency at the Sixth Sense Our exhibition includes 23 paintings and is entitled "A Wild Exhibition of Wild Flowers". Most of these works contain the universal subject of the flower, but through Caroline's creativity and imagination, each one communicates much more than the naked eye can see.

Caroline has exhibited on many occasions, but this is only her second exhibition in the US, the first being hosted by us in 2023.
