Ange Leccia

Born in 1952 in Minerviu in Corsica, Ange Leccia lives and works between Paris and Corsica. After studying visual arts, he engaged in a dual activity as a visual artist and filmmaker, and initiated his research as a resident at the Villa Medici – French Academy in Rome. At the crossroads between experimental cinema, installation and video, Leccia's images mix portraits, landscapes, stories, often drawing their motifs from nature and capture moments where intimacy and intensity create a particularly sensitive visual texture. The works of Ange Leccia are regularly exhibited in France and abroad, notably at the Museum of Modern Art and the Centre Pompidou in Paris, at the Guggenheim Museum in New York, at documenta in Kassel, at the Skulptur Projekte in Münster, at the Venice Biennale, the Seibu Museum of Art in Tokyo and the National Gallery of Iceland in Reykjavík. In 2022, he exhibited at the Musée de l'Orangerie in Paris, at the Musée des impressionnismes in Giverny and at the Louvre Abu Dhabi.
