Born in London in 1964, Marc Quinn is one of the internationally known Young British Artists, notably for a sculpture installed on Trafalgar Square that represents the disabled artist Alison Lapper.

Galerie Hopkins-Custot presents Marc Quinn’s work for the first time in France. At first, at the 10th pavillon des Antiquaires from March 25 until April 2 and then at the gallery from April 3 until June 15.

Marc Quinn explores the mediated and disjointed relationship with nature and what is natural.

“What’s interesting to me is to make art that’s about reality, not about formal invention. I’m interested in all extremes. I like things that appear to strain at epitomising themselves.”

The elegant catalogue includes a large interview of the artist, both in French and English, as well as a total of 53 reproductions including 29 full page.

Six new ultra-realists large canvases are presented in 3 fold-outs leaflets, giving its originality to the catalogue and allowing for a detailed understanding of each of the works.

This catalogue is distributed by our partner PARIS MUSÉES in 300 bookstores in France, including 50 specialized with an Art section. The catalogue will be listed in over forty (40) professional databases, including Fnac, Amazon and Dilicom as well as in online bookstores.

The catalogue will also be distributed in Europe, North America, Canada and Eastern Europe.
