A well traveled artist, Cristophe Ronel's painting traverse the world. From the rich colors of North Africa, to the subtle introspective nature of the Orient, a narration unfolds.
Ronel has the ability to shock us into a dreamlike state. His art is complete and intelligent, a comforting characteristic of contemporary art today.


Christophe Ronel has a partiality above all for the investigation of nomad cultures, wich fascinate him. He takes them up through his own narratives and transgresses their drawings, engraving or weavings. the influence of the tived experience is imperative as well.
The polychromatic sumptuousness provokes his dream of voyages.
The human beeings or animals juxtapose one another, herd together in narratives at the limit of the obsessional. the painter is passionately interested in the accumulation of ceaselessly reinvented notes.
Most of the images proposed by Christophe Ronel offer an unprecedented overall reading, wich he constantly reactivates and in which the spectator find himself precipitated. Simultated ressemblances, signs, overlap and interweave to better correspond to an extaordinary necessity.


Christophe Ronel was born in France in 1964. Today he is a professor of plastic Arts and Art History at the L'Ecole National Superieure des Arts appliques and metiers d'Arts Olivier de Serres in Paris.
