Bienvenue
The painter Kérozen
Kérozen lives and works in Arpino in Italy. In the ‘70s, he studied drawing at the experimental artistic high
school of Sèvres-Ville d’Avray, near Paris, where one of his teachers made him particularly sensitive to the
work of Leonardo da Vinci, and then graphics at the “Ecole Corvisart” of Paris. In 1989, he decided to
dedicate himself exclusively to painting. He has been working for about fifteen years on the theme of the
Mona Lisa. He has participated in numerous exhibitions in Italy (Rome, Milan, Florence, Vinci in Tuscany...),
in France (Paris, Cholet, Amboise, Saint Gervais …) as well as in Scotland, the Netherlands, Burkina Faso and
Taiwan.
Today, he draws his inspiration from his life in the countryside of Arpino, to the South of Rome, where he
works in his studio surrounded by olive trees and aims to express his “joie de vivre”. His pleasure in painting
shows itself in the wide range of his styles and modes of expression, in the liveliness of his colours, which
explode in his paintings, and in their themes, full of serenity and humanity.
He created paintings on the theme of the four seasons, always so coloured, that you can discover in short
videos (see page Videos).
Since 2016, Kérozen also works in France, in Nantes, where he has painted large paintings inspired by
emblematic places of the city or by the artists who inspire him, to whom he paid tribute during a series of
exhibitions in 2019 “Sur le chemin des peintres”.
Welcome
The previous year he presented in Nantes, where he has a studio
for several years, five other large paintings inspired by
places that he particularly appreciates in the city as well as
many paintings and photos on the same theme.
He invites us to a "Journey to Nantes" by following the blue line
of the sky that guided him in his walks in Nantes.

Kérozen
A French national, Kérozen lives in Italy where he has returned in
search of his family roots but he divides his life and creative work
between France and Italy.
His latest exhibition, "I Colori dell'Anima", was held in August 2024 at
the Circolo Tulliano in Arpino, the village where he lives and works
south of Rome. He presented his large paintings "Tragedy", "Venice"
and "Madame Récamier", as well as a series of very colourful portraits
of Cicero or young Italians.
