Painting in New York

Daughter of a Vietnamese father and a French mother, Julie Curtiss (1982) studied at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and graduated in 2006. She now lives and works in Brooklyn. 

Painting, sculpture and drawing: the lines and colors are sharp and immediately recognizable. Her work deploys a black humor in which female figures dominate. Silhouettes with forked nails, long hair, often faceless, they irrigate the canvases with a dark energy.

Two galleries represent her: Anton Kern (New York) and White Cube (London).
