The current exhibition

🎨 New exhibition at Maison Montgrand!

Nicolas Pagnier's new exhibition will be on view from March 2 to March 30, 2025. An exhibition presented by arts Marseille.🎨 

A high-school teacher in Marseille, this artist rediscovered drawing a few years ago thanks to charcoal, after a long break. Working charcoal with his fingers is an essential, almost instinctive step in his process, enabling him to give shape to the emotions he wishes to convey.

In this series of drawings, Nicolas seeks to revive moments from the daily lives of our parents and grandparents: the pride of a fine harvest, the joy of a first car, the hope of discovering a spring with a pendulum, or the amusement of a child playing at the wheel of an old wreck...

The play of light, shadows and soft charcoal strokes envelop these scenes with a touch of nostalgia and personal sensitivity.
