MARC UZAN (B. 1955) After discovering modeling, Marc Uzan opened his first studio in Paris in 1977, before leaving to train in Florence, where he met Salvatore and Stefano Cipolla. His career took him to live and exhibit all over the world, as well as in France, where he returned in 1995, settling in the Sarthe region. Uzan explores a wide range of techniques to bring his multi-faceted pieces to life. Trained in physics, he is above all fascinated by research into enamels, which he renders in deep, vivid, nuanced colors. He also passes on his knowledge through articles and books.
