Condition: Good. Véronique Vermeil (1938-2017) was a talented French painter and sculptor whose rich career spanned more than fifty years. Born in France, she began her artistic life in the bohemian neighborhood of Montmartre in Paris, where her bright, shimmering paintings quickly attracted the attention of collectors. Her pictorial work, continually evolving at the border of Fauvism, Expressionism, and abstraction, explores very diverse techniques such as oil on canvas, acrylic on paper, lithography, and pastel on velvet. Her travels and extended stays in Tuscany, Provence, and Africa deeply nourished her inspiration and are reflected in her luminous landscapes and colorful compositions. In the early 1980s, the artist gave a new dimension to her creation by taking up sculpture, shaping pieces of wood gathered with scissors and gouge to give birth to poetic totems she named her “memory woods.” This distinctive, recuperative approach places part of her three-dimensional production within the movement of Arte Povera. Recognized by her peers, she regularly exhibited in prestigious Parisian institutions such as the Grand Palais and the Louvre Museum, but also internationally, notably in Italy, Switzerland, Belgium, Germany, and even French Polynesia. Her works are part of public collections and adorn several French educational institutions, bearing witness to her status as a well-rounded artist.
