Galerie Eric Mouchet
Miron Schmückle , Germany
"The Nymphs Are Departed"
Miron Schmückle, Flesh for Fantasy, 2022 - Valérie
The Galerie Eric Mouchet Paris is very pleased to welcome for the first time the works of the German-Romanian artist Miron Schmückle (born in 1966) within its walls. Miron Schmückle’s delicate paintings and their Latin titles attract and trap the viewer, making them believe they are something they are not. Hidden behind apparent botanical illustrations, the beauty of nature presents itself in the paintings in its purest form, allowing the viewer to discover through observation that the plant elements depicted are the product of the artist’s imagination. Schmückle exaggerates the beauty of nature, creating an artificial life with flowers that do not belong to Earth. The colors blend delicately into the surrounding forms. Applied on the surface, India ink reproduces the vibrant hues of jungles and forests. Miron Schmückle’s works have been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions in Germany and abroad, and are part of several public and private art collections.”

The gallery
The Galerie Eric Mouchet mainly represents young contemporary artists with forward-looking approaches, whose research subjects focus on geopolitics, sociology, ecology, societal and gender issues, without limitation of media or form (performance, installation, video, photography, drawing).
The Galerie Eric Mouchet also benefits from expertise in French and German historical avant-gardes (Le Corbusier, Schwitters, Ella Bergmann-Michel and Robert Michel...), which offers the possibility of confrontations and interconnections between 20th-century art and contemporary art today.
Since 2022, the gallery has opened a new space in Brussels, in partnership with Galerie Martin Kudlek (Cologne) and Patrick Heide Contemporary Art (London). Located at 333 avenue Van Volxem in Forest, facing the WIELS contemporary art center and adjacent to Galila's POC, the space of collector Galila Barzilai Hollander, this 1900 vernacular house of 400 m2 offers three floors of exhibitions and a garden that will host the Belgian programming of the three associated galleries.
The gallery is a member of the Professional Committee of Art Galleries and the Paris Gallery Map network.
