Jean-Luc Lacroix

One recognizes a genuine creator, because his style, his brand, his signature are a permanent rewriting of his history and of the highlights of his life. Jean-Luc Lacroix is a poet who likes to thwart the rhyme: lock with sculpture, pulley and embroidery, nail wheel lock nut... gem!
As sculptor and designer of furniture in RecupArt, Jean-Luc Lacroix offers to older tools, utensils or other items the chance of a life more beautiful, a contemplative retreat. His talent in the art of recovery and his imagination in the creative reconstruction are without limits. A chair or a console in the sculptured design gives the tray of a pedal assembly the elegance of lace, a fifth wheel as a small pedestal table makes it a beautiful set to pulleys and cranks... But the effect of his work would be incomplete if it did not emphasize the humor that runs through each part: a phantasmagoric bestiary or realistic vain brightenes his work, as well as suggestive names like “Hangover sewer”, “Urlub” or “Brutus”.
In the field of painting, I love playing with colors and matters and invest myself in the abstract style for 15 years till now.
My artworks are visible at auctions in Drouot, Paris, in the category 'Creation Contemporaine' two times a year since 2010, and at the gallery 'Atelier de Grégoire' in Puteaux, North of Paris (France).
