PATTYLAURENT
Born of a family of artists, in 1950, June 27, in Oran, Patty Laurent is a self taught artist. He discovered painting in his youth. The characters and worlds that he creates do not belong to a specific time or determined space; thus, daily reality neither interferes in, nor limits him to a definite epoch. Within his creative universe, he builds up genuine aesthetics close to his inspirations, a line which guides him on his virgin canvas where he explores his imaginary visions to the full, since his dreams require tangible reality. Doing so, he gives real meaning to Art, His own.
