Markowicz Fine Art Laguna Niguel Debuts Artwork from Alain Godon

Markowicz Fine Art has announced its spring exhibition showcase, “California Dreaming” featuring modern and contemporary artworks by acclaimed French sculptor and painter, Alain Godon. Over twenty original artworks including mixed media, works on paper and sculptures, will be on display beginning April 9.

“After representing Alain Godon in the United States for more than twelve years, I’m excited to introduce his work to the savvy art collectors and art enthusiasts of Orange County,” said Bernard Markowicz, owner of Markowicz Fine Art. “Alain has been embraced by critics and art lovers alike, all who have had the opportunity to experience his work in galleries around the world. We anticipate the same caliber of reception here on the West Coast. The opening reception will be a time to celebrate Alain’s new collection of artwork.”

As a pavement graffiti artist in France and the UK during the 1980s, Alain became a sought-after talent, known for his colorful and comprehensive designs and the use of bold, strong colors. As his style evolved, he honed his technique for drawing and painting during his residencies in St. Tropez, London and New York City, while expanding into sculpture work in 2001.

Since then, his work has been seen globally in galleries and museums in Europe, Bali and throughout the United States. In 2015, he was commissioned by the City of Miami Beach to illustrate and create the graphic art for the official report for the City of Miami Beach.

Detailed, whimsical and charismatic, the work of Alain Godon creates insightful conversation with each piece. Alain’s paintings are reflections on everyday life, infused with his unique imagination. Followers of his art have been known to purchase pieces well before completion. Alain has exhibited his art within the walls of the Louvre, and has been lauded as “one of the best painters of his generation” by Christian Boeringer, former commercial director of the Louvre Museum, and Patrice Deparpe, Director of the Matisse Museum.

The featured pieces in Godon’s new “California Dreaming” exhibition include oil paintings and bronze sculptures.

The Laguna Niguel gallery marks the third Markowicz Fine Art location, with galleries in Dallas and Miami. The 6,400 square-foot location is the latest addition to Orange County’s dynamic art scene and community, committed to featuring a concentration of museum quality artwork from both established U.S. artists, as well as International and European artists not typically featured in the U.S.

Markowicz Fine Art is proud to partner with the Illumination Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3), providing targeted, interdisciplinary services for the most vulnerable homeless adults and children in order to disrupt the cycle of homelessness. A portion of evening sales will benefit the organization which has been serving Los Angeles, Orange County and Inland Empire since 2008.
