Laurence Bost's paintings have a beneficial effect on the soul.  Sylvain Tesson

As every year, and throughout the month of June, GALERIE 26 opens its doors to the works of Laurence Bost. A painter whose canvases vibrate with color and light, she draws her inspiration from everyday scenes, her family, and the landscapes she travels through. For 14 years, we have followed her inspirations like so many paths traveled with her; it is a joy.

There are also the places she has dreamed of and imagined, such as the few canvases of Vietnam that you will discover in this exhibition. Lotus harvesting, work in the rice paddies, embroiderers, a dreamy young girl with long, jet-black hair, and the vivid colors of the "Tu thân" tunics and “leaf” hats. So many landscapes, faces, and scents, all sublimely captured by Laurence Bost.
