The Love of Art has no Limits for Ange Monnoyeur

Art is a mirror and it will keep saving the world.
For Ange Monnoyeur, art is necessary to keep hope alive! And to thrill the emotions of those who contemplate the heterogeneous art works of the artists she represents.

In 2019, she created Ange Monnoyeur Gallery to satisfy her desire to promote artists. To whom she gives wings after allowing them to hatch.

She made a personal contribution to art in France after studying in California.

Her dream? Reinvent the movement of a gallery, the simplicity of the exhibition. Mostly the visibility of artists, the experience of visitors, fans, and art buyers.

Acumen Galerie Joseph had the opportunity to talk with a passionate woman. Who lives by the passion that transcends her, and paints a portrait of Angel Monnoyeur for you.

Ange Monnoyeur Gallery, the project of a passionate woman

She wanted to surprise, to amaze, and she insists especially on the verb to dream.

Since her childhood, Ange Monnoyeur has been immersed in artistic creation.

“Surrounded by a father, a great lover of art and dance, I have always lived around works of art, furniture, and objects that transmitted to me the taste for beauty with an artistic perspective. “

Nothing intended her to be the curator of a project like “Ange Monnoyeur Gallery”, since she studied dance in California. Failing to become a dancer on Broadway, she devoted all her efforts to reinvent the traditional gallery. Where the nonexistence of the movement had to be questioned to allow better visibility for the artists, and to give more dynamism and depth to the exhibitions. So with several strings to her bow, she decides to create her own gallery.

What is the purpose of an art exhibition for you?

“I always needed to create something spectacular by organizing an exhibition a bit like an event. You have to be able to present the work of an artist with a non limited imagination, with a scenography, a visual event that highlights the artworks. An exhibition should amaze, surprise the customer while encouraging them to buy. It must be an event in which we will discover an artist every time; and understand his work better, and his techniques, while remaining spectator but buyer. “

 

Ange Monnoyeur was notably present at one of the Paris art events: Paris Art Fair. Where an audience of art lovers, professionals, directors of institutions, and collectors meet to learn about new trends in contemporary art, and to buy works presented by galleries.

“It’s also a gift for the artists, to be Recognized and be present at these art fairs. An exchange between the Gallery and the Artist.

It’s very dynamic, eclectic and it takes you out of your comfort zone in terms of your usual networks. It also reinforces our artistic choices, thanks to the eyes of new customers. “

Ange Monnoyeur Gallery: A sensitivity for artists with unique works

Several artistic figures inspired her journey while she was trying to build a career of a gallery owner. Between dancers, contemporary artists, without forgetting her father. Monnoyeur managed to take her own road and meet personalities who pushed her to follow her true vocation.

Ange Monnoyeur works with several artists who share her values, her tastes, her passion, hier motivation, and her emotional intelligence. Like Yannick Fournié, Aurélie Quentin, Philippe Boulay, Victoire d’Harcourt and so many others …

“My sensitivity is a Strength, my personal commitment to the Artist is, I believe, my strength with them. I support them, I don’t let go of them. I believe in them and move forward with my artists, hand in hand.
I am exactly at the place I never thought I could claim. I am very happy and passionate about my activity, it is a chance and an asset to believe and make you believe in the talent and the future of an artist. »

She also reveals to us that she often follows her instincts and that her tastes are eclectic. She needs to work with creators who give meaning to their works.

“The Artist must have an accomplished professional work, a real personal artistic approach, a sense, and a story that must touch me. While being honest about his desire to work closely with me.
I put my heart, my energy, my time and a lot of hope into it. It is up to them to also show me a certain reactivity. “

The SUPERLUX Exhibition: A Proof of Courage

The artists represented by Ange Monnoyeur will be present for a Parisian pop-up store in the Marais, from June 1 to 12, 2020 at the Galerie Joseph 123 Turenne. After the health crisis that the world has just experienced, this initiative is a real challenge.

The angel will continue to carry out the mission that she set to herself, to lead, protect, and present her artists. She describes us this new exhibition with a lot of emotions.

“We will be able to appreciate the sculptures of Juliette Clovis, the paintings of Yannick Fournié, the lamps of Gabriel Morisson, and the photos of Victoire D’Harcourt in a beautiful designers interior, thanks to the furniture and objects from Blunt Manufacture.

These Artists evolve with different supports.

Gabriel Morisson will create a lighting installation with a wall of “Honeycomb” lights, a sort of light hive to flood the gallery and the works of all the artists together.

This lamp will diffuse a soft, multiple and enveloping light.

The visitor’s eye will shift from the work of art to the design object which in turn becomes a work of art.

I wish to give to transmit a little of this interior and exterior light which continues to make me vibrate, despite the trouble in which we live today. “

 

Even after the pandemic, and the expansion of online art purchases, Ange Monnoyeur believes in the precious physical exchange with artists.

“We will have taken more, I hope aware of the place of man in our ecosystem, of the fragility of our planet. Change this health crisis and transform it for a new existence.

I must try now to reflect on my level on what I need to change, and create to evolve. So that artists can continue to create freely too. “

Ange Monnoyeur believes in art and the emotion it brings.

She has a lot of ambition, and after her pop-up store in Galerie Joseph 123 Turenne, you will find her at Fotofever at the Carrousel du Louvre accompanied by female photographers committed to protecting nature.

She doesn’t hide from us that her ultimate dream crosses borders, and that she wishes to exhibit her contemporary artists in Miami, Florida.

No expiration date is set for the art she wants to promote, and for the love that has grown in her.
