◈ First edition · Opening
The Clos de Beaurepaire
opens its walls to art.
Because a place steeped in history deserves to host works that tell its story. The opening at Beaurepaire — a meeting between an exceptional estate and artists who reflect its character.
Annick Zimmermann
A painter who seeks the essence beneath the layers.
Trained at the Beaux-Arts in Beauvais after an initial career in science, Annick Zimmermann has built a unique body of work— nourished by travels , atmospheres, and encounters. Her painting does not represent: it reveals.
His sanding technique — scraping the surface to reveal the underlying layers — is a metaphor for his entire approach: going beyond appearances to find what lasts.
What makes his work unique
TRAVEL AS A SOURCE
Each canvas carries the memory of a place, a light, a culture encountered. It absorbs these elements before painting.
THE SANDING TECHNIQUE
Scratching the surface to reveal the layers beneath — seeking the essence beyond appearances. A rare signature.
COLORS, LINES & TEXTURES
A sensory exploration — the traces of time and human experiences as raw material.
