ABOUT THE ARTWORK

SHIPPING AND RETURNS
Flesh, the tender rawness of the human body, gender-free and organic forms have always inspired me. I only draw from live models in my Paris loft. Session after session, in their pure nakedness, they come to life, fleshing out and revealing their core essence and humanity. Women ? Men ? We are One. ...

Arghaël studied under Gérard Venturelli at the Ateliers des Beaux-Arts, Paris, forging a new, intimate dialogue with drawing through an in-depth study of live models. Arghaël's powerful nudes are reminiscent of Bacon's distortion of the human figure and Rodin's sensual approach to the body. But Arghaël opts for a radical purity: his canvas is raw, primitive, as if naked itself.
We witness the birth of a singular body of work that questions the notion of gender and the mystery of the flesh, physically confronting our unconscious. Over the past 10 years, through his exhibitions –Raw (2015), Skin(s) (2017), Métamorphe(s) (2019), Under My Skin (2023) - Arghaël has been exploring the mutation of bodies, challenging our imagination: as close as possible to flesh, bones and blood vessels, he traces his figures on the walls of his canvas which has become his primal cave. Metaphors for the creative process, Arghaël's creatures come to life before our eyes as the incisive precision of his line, his charcoal, pastels and oils devour the canvas, exploring or rather excavating the invisible for a raw exposure of the living.
Arghaël has been represented by the Loo & Lou Gallery in Paris since 2015.
In 2025 Arghaël won the Silver Medal in painting at the Salon des Beaux Arts, Paris.
He is currently preparing his next show for 2027 in Paris.
