DUAIV (French/American, b.1952)

As a painter, he is known and acclaimed for his bold and expressive works. His vibrant brushstrokes, filled with saturated colors, turn everyday scenes into extraordinary visual experiences. Each canvas bursts with energy, bringing a sense of joy and movement to life.

Duaiv, a renowned and highly collected French artist was born in 1952 in Bordeaux, France, He thrived in an artistic environment: his mother was a classical pianist and his father a sculptor. He first picked up a paintbrush at age 3 and completed his first oil painting at age 9. The Artist studied the cello at the Conservatoire Nationale de Musique in Paris and attended the prestigious École des Beaux-Arts in Paris to study painting; sparking and fostering a serious pedigree in both of his lifelong passions: painting and music.

This dual classical training guided his journey, allowing him to become globally renowned as an exceptional expressionist painter. At the same time, his affinity for music blossomed, as he trained rigorously to become an accomplished concert cellist. His performances, both solo and ensemble, are marked by the same emotional intensity that define his paintings. In his hands, the cello becomes a brush, painting musical landscapes.

What makes this Artist truly unique is how he bridges his two talents. His paintings capture the fluidity and rhythm of music, while his heralded musical performances evoke the colors and emotions of his artwork. Together, they create a multisensory experience, inviting audiences to feel and see the world through his eyes.

Duaiv’s journey as both an expressionist painter and a concert cellist exemplifies the power of artistic passion. Through his extraordinary and mutli-disciplined talents, he celebrates the beauty of human expression in all its forms—leaving an indelible mark on the world of art and music.
