Description

Gregoire Devin was born in 1978 in Nantes. He got involved in drawing very early at a time the streets of New-York started to get covered with graffiti and new counter cultures started to emerge all over the world. This cultural and artistic landscape, full of shapes and energetic colors, contributed to the artist's creativity. As the years went by, the artist became more mature in its drawing, but always kept the spontaneity and mischievousness from its childhood. Paintings became his main support, and took the form of dense and dynamic compositions.

This dynamic form of painting became a poetic reflection of the artist' numerous travels across the world largest megalopolises. The eye plunges into a bubbling of information, in pastel or glued on solid colors, as if the observer was lost in a city too big for him. The characters, tortured but also elegant, are projected just like us, and seem to be harassed by a mix of arrows, cars, symbols and sentences, either informative or interrogative. A complex network that takes some time to completely spell out as new ways are emerging each time a track is revealed. But the journey is in no way laborious.  On the contrary, it is an enriching introspection as the artist wants us to question the notion of individualism in an urban society.

Presentation

Grégoire Devin, whose works are exhibited in numerous galleries around the world, has established himself as a prolific French artist exploring various artistic mediums. His paintings, drawings and sculptures are shown in art galleries in the United States, Europe and the Middle East, and in several contemporary art museums in China. His works have also joined private collections around the world.

Grégoire draws his inspiration from street culture, the urban culture he immerses himself in during his leisure or professional trips to New York, Miami and throughout Europe.

His works have caught the attention of renowned collectors, but also of major brands, even Princes:

In 2018, at the Global Art Awards in Dubai, Grégoire Devin received from the hands of His Highness Sheikh Saeed Bin Tahnoun Bin Mohammed Al Nahyan the prize for best artist, the "Best Global Artist Award".

This same year 2018, for his 60th birthday, the Prince of Monaco, Albert II, received a work by Grégoire Devin, the sculpture "United We Stand".

Luc Belaire, the most successful French sparkling wine brand in the world, renowned in particular for its rosé, the best-selling French wine in the United States, asked him to participate in a large-scale project, the Art Series, and to create two limited edition bottles, currently distributed all over the world.

The Belgian actor Jean-Claude Van Damme, the American rapper and producer Rick Ross, but also the legendary bassist of the group Guns 'n Roses Duff McKagan, emblematic artists among others, exhibited a work by Grégoire Devin at home, while like other renowned collectors.

Grégoire Devin also devotes his time to several charitable projects such as, for example, the Iconic Haus in Paradise Valley, Arizona, a villa entirely decorated by interior designers and artists for the benefit of the Heart Center of the Children's Hospital of the city of Phoenix, the Phoenix Children's Hospital, or even this other project for the benefit of WWF on the initiative of the founder of EasyJet Sir Stelios Haji-loannou and the Prince of Monaco, Albert II.

Many other works by Grégoire Devin, including his last paintings which appear in the American series “The CHI", broadcast since 2020 on the Showtime channel and created by Lena Waithe, awarded by an Emmy Awards, can be seen on his site gregoiredevin. com.
