About

Julian PaltenghiPaltenghi’s paintings are in private collections in Europe, America and Australia, exhibiting successfully since the 1980’s, and winning the Hunting / Observer Travel Award which took him to Australia (1992) returning with a large folio of work which was later exhibited at the Royal College of Art London.

He has travelled widely, painting in Zanzibar, Ireland, South of France, Crete, Portugal, Australia, Baja – Mexico.

As well as landscapes he is noted for this still life work – flowers, fruit – and more recently bottles and glasses.

Reduced images (paired down) – a simple but mediative style, underscored by poetic tension.

Julian Paltenghi, c’est l’artiste le plus anglais de Tarascon ! Il était temps que ceux qui le croisent dans Tarascon où il est installé depuis de nombreuses années, mais ne le connaissent pas, découvrent enfin son travail, tout en couleurs et sobriété, délicatesse et poésie… Un amoureux de la lumière, des lignes, des aplats vibrants, des paysages architecturés ou des natures mortes épurées où l’oeil se repose et se perd comme dans un haïku visuel.

Frédérique Gachet, Tarascon, 26/4/18
