Provenance: Galerie PARIS-B., Paris Acquired directly from the latter by the present owner Exhibitions : Paris, Galerie PARIS-B, Marion Charlet - ... Et l'été reviendra, 5 November 2020 to 16 January 2021 FR With her paintings and drawings, Marion Charlet invites us into a colourful, paradisiacal world that evokes a summer atmosphere we are delighted to enter. Through the motifs found throughout her work, which is marked by a distinctive palette, a world of her own takes shape. Unlike the vast majority of her paintings, her new series Ciao (2020) introduces the human figure in large formats where the artist stages veritable colourful choreographies. The compositions, which focus on the bodies of her dancers, allow us to identify easily with these anonymous silhouettes, which fade away in favour of their movements. Although the landscapes disappear here, the same palette of colours gives heart to these joyful dances, which take place against coloured backgrounds dominated by the artist's characteristic blue. Marked by the influence of English painters, David Hockney in particular, Marion Charlet takes us on a journey into a world that breaks away from the rules of classical perspective, in paintings that are always veritable invitations to travel. AT Marion Charlet invites us into a colourful and heavenly world, with an atmosphere that reminds us of holidays, in which we gladly step into. Using similar motifs and patterns, and a colour palette that can be found in all her paintings and drawings, she creates a universe of her own. Contrary to the vast majority of her paintings, her new series Ciao (2020) introduces the human gure in large formats where the artist stages real colorful choreographies. The compositions, focusing on the dancers' bodies, allow us to identify with those anonymous gures. There are no landscapes, but a similar colour palette, which truly embodies the joyful dances where the characteristic blue dominates. Influenced by English painters, especially David Hockney, Marion Charlet takes us with her into a universe that breaks away from the classical perspective, where each painting feels like an invitation to travel.
