Coudrain

Coudrain

Leaving Vexin in 1953, where her parents ran a pharmacy, Coudrain, whose first name was Brigitte, moved to Paris and quickly opted for engraving. She joined the studio of Johnny Friedlaender, a demanding and attentive master who taught her all the techniques.

Coudrain's engraved work gradually asserted its unity and coherence: whatever the subject, the central motif soon divided into its multiple elements, each revealing its richness in its structure.

Brigitte Coudrain's work has been exhibited in museums in Paris, Hamburg, New York, Copenhagen, Chicago, Essen, Frankfurt, Brussels, Cologne, Stuttgart and Jerusalem.
