MARIE MADELEINE GAUTIER
Artist Statement:
“It is important to me and my work to create harmony from disproportion… it’s practically my life philosophy. As an example, people always think fat is ugly, but why should they? Why is fat deemed ugly…I want to make it look perfect.”
About Marie Madeleine Gautier:
Born in 1956, Gautier studied at the prestigious School of Fine Arts in Paris.
Gautier is known for her representations of very round and yet light creatures, many distended and portly, but all with graceful shapes. With their calm and peaceful aura and attitudes, her sculptures are full of sensitivity and are extremely poetic.
Gautier, who resides outside of Paris, participates in solo and group exhibitions throughout the continents. Her sculptures are favored and collected throughout the world.
