Artwork by Jean-Michel Lengrand.
CUPECOY--The Art Box Gallery is partnering with The Cliff, a luxury residence in Cupecoy to host a series of art exhibitions. World-renowned artist Jean-Michel Lengrand will be the first to exhibit his latest collection at The Cliff at 6:00pm, Thursday, February 16. The public is invited to the “La Metaphysics De L’Art” exhibition.
Lengrand was born in Paris in 1955 and sold his first painting at the age of 14. His portfolio is extensive. A notable moment includes working on restorations at The Louvre in Paris and other national museums for masterpieces by artists such as Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, Peter-Paul Rubens or Alfred Sisley.
Lengrand specialises in the secret techniques of the old masters and is most well-known for his painting techniques using Venetian Amber and essential oils on wood, made popular by the Flemish painter Jan van Eyck (1400), named “The Flemish’s Secret”.
He has exhibited his work in galleries and shows worldwide, including the Netherlands, Hungary, Italy, Germany, Morocco, St. Barths and French St. Martin, where he is now based.
The exhibition at The Cliff will feature his original paintings, drawing and etchings. The Art Box Gallery encourages art lovers and enthusiasts to attend the exhibition. “Be ready to be enraptured by the surrealistic art that awaits,” the gallery said in a press release.
