Jacquounain

Nathalie Jacquounain was born and raised in Soviet Russia, in Saint Petersburg. She started studying serious art at the age of 10, then at the National Academy of Fine Arts. In 1973 she graduated from the National Academy of Theatre and Cinematography as a stage designer. Driven by a strong sense of belonging to the European artistic tradition, she moved to France, to Paris in 1980, where she worked for a year in the studio of the artist Yankel (son of Kikoine - one of the emblematic artists of the Montparnasse school) at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts de Paris, and then studied at the University of Paris 7 Jussieu and obtained a post-graduate diploma in communication.

Jacquounain has published several articles on art theory in a magazine "Schéma et schématisation".

She has created on commission a decorative mosaic fresco 2m x 12m on the theme of ecology in the public space in Créteil and a sculpture 1m50 high on the theme of diversity for the Cultural Center in Créteil.

Jacquounain has had 14 personal exhibitions (11 in France) and has participated in numerous group exhibitions and fairs.

She presents the paintings of the collection META-ECOLOGIE.
