About Nicolas Maureau

 
 
  • Biography
    My practice invites the public to explore the interaction between history, gender and human society through the prism of the art history in a resolutely contemporary way.

    Born in Dordogne (France) I graduated from the École supérieure d’art de Bretagne (Rennes). 
    My artistic evolution took a significant turn in 2009 when I turned to figuration, marking the beginning of a personal artistic voice.  I start painting with oil, my favorite medium. The following year, in 2010, I received the special prize from the ArToulouse jury, affirming my presence in the artistic landscape. My works have found wide visibility nationally, with numerous exhibitions.

    At the heart of my exploration is the iconography of painting. Through my work, I draw from the history of art, seeking to untangle the threads that bind us to it through our contemporary individual and societal behaviors. Beyond historical reflections. I translate complex notions of gender and explore the relationship between male and female bodies.

    My works find a place in private and public art collections and have been featured in various publications, such as “The Art of Men USA”, “Beaux-arts magazine”, and “Parcours des Arts” in 2021.
