ANNE-FRANCE FULGENCE – LUXE, CALME ET VOLUPTÉ –
The Gallery is ONLY OPEN FROM THURSDAY TO SUNDAY INCLUSIVE.
* The title of this show is a line taken from the poem “L’Invitation Au Voyage” by Charles Baudelaire.
Anne-France Fulgence revels in dramatic landscape compositions. The Australia she paints lies in a mythical half-light between the sea and the land. These are eerie dream places – scenes merge and morph into Fulgence’s observations, recollections, imaginings, forebodings and longings.
Her latest work explores the mystery and majesty of the south coast of NSW. Sheer cliffs and teeming tidal pools meet ocean and an infinite sky. These are scenes suffused with serenity – fleeting moments of stillness.
A-F was born in Morocco, studied in France, and migrated to Australia in 1989. She attributes her sense of drama and place to her French ancestry and what she admits is a “wild romanticism”.
“The Australia I paint is vivid, compelling, ever-shifting. My paintings can be like a poetic tale, dark, moody, evocative and atmospheric,” A-F (as she prefers to be called) explains.
“I find solace in the solitude within my studio, where I battle with paint and celebrate any progress I make in capturing an instant of beauty.”
Everyone is welcome, entry is free.
