 Born
in Paris in 1974, Jeanne
Isabelle Cornière is a Italian-French
painter. She first began with studies of History of Art at
the Sorbonne university,
that conducted her to Rome (Ecole
Française of Rome), London
(Warburg Institute)
and Florence.
Then she decided to study art painting. She followed for 5
years the painting courses of the French
Académie des peintres in
Poissy (Paris). She improved with courses of drawing, clay,
sculpture on stone, and engraving at the Ecole-Nationale-Supérieure-des-Beaux-Arts
of Paris and at the Scuola
Libera del nudo at the Accademia
di belle Arti of Florence (3 years).
She moved in Florence in 2001, where she actually lives. During
3 years, she teach painting and directed art laboratories
at the French Institute.
She actually teaches plastic arts at the French
School in Florence, as well as
painting and drawing in her private studio.
Since 2006, a part of her work is inspired particularly to
Japanese art in a style that operates a sort of fusion between
“zen” traditional painting and modern water-color.
Using the big formats as medium, she choose nature (particularly
flowers, insects and fishes) as theme of predilection in a
bare decorative style.
In parallel of her water-color work, this artist multiplies
eclectically supports and techniques (drawing, painting, sculpture)
in a constant search of experimentation.
One recent exhibition of her monochromes “interiors
and landscapes”, has permitted to show also her interest
for photography and the study of the light, like in the school
of the North.
Some of her works are in permanent exhibition at the Hotel
Basilea in Florence. Other works are on sale in the Galleria
Babele of Florence, at the Galleria
La Costarella of S.Gimignano and
at the Art Gallery
of Montaione (Tuscany).
