Alexandre Aucomte (1977)

Contemporary painter exhibiting at Galerie Catherine Pennec in Clermont-Ferrand, Auvergne (France) during the 2024 edition of "Les Arts en Balade"

Biography

Born in 1977 in Montluçon, Alexandre Aucomte is a multidisciplinary visual artist based in Clermont-Ferrand, also working as a teacher in Fine Arts. He honed his talent and artistic sensibility at the Fine Arts School of Clermont-Ferrand, where he explored the absurd, the trivial, and the strange in his works. His oeuvre, ranging from video to installation, photography, and drawing, stands out for its ability to capture the irony and mystery of everyday life.

The exhibition showcases a selection of his latest creations, including series of minimalist drawings executed in ink, acrylic, and pencil. Often associated with a certain fragility and hybridization of forms, these works reflect the artist's rich artistic experience and sensitivity.
