Remi Labarre

Remi Labarre, leading contemporary artist certainly offers a beautiful collection of signed prints. He describes his atmospheric oils as ‘painted songs’. His inspiration comes from observation and experience. Evenings of shared looks between a man and a woman, the drink that perhaps changed everything, or from the musician who noticed it all from the stage. An evocative homage to the artist’s love of jazz. Furthermore his paintings can be found in collections across Europe and America including that of the great Canadian singer songwriter Leonard Cohen.

Influenced by John Singer Sargent, his work reflects the lighting of hushed environments. Also presents poetic narratives of life after dark in bars and jazz clubs. Born in 1977, painted and drew from childhood. Finally, a self-taught artist, he always worked on his pictures for the sheer enjoyment of it. His love of painting still shines through in every piece he creates. Remi Labarre’s stunning work can be found in collections across Europe and America including that of the great Canadian singer songwriter Leonard Cohen.
