Atelier Galerie Margret Storck-Houlahan - La Baume des Pèlerins

Margret Storck-Houlahan was born in Bremen, Germany. In 1973, she attended the Beaux-Arts until 1980. In 1979, the artist Axel Knopp invited her to take part in the Sixth International Print Biennial in Bradford, England, where she received the Young Printmaker Prize for her silkscreen Tine. In 1981, she was awarded the Bremen City Prize for the Promotion of Fine Arts.
Her works can be found in private and public collections (Senator of Culture, Bremen / Altes Museum, Berlin).
From 2014 to 2017: Founder and curator of the Sixtrace and Vendanges photographiques exhibitions, held annually in Sablet (84).
Works of art by 28 artists from France and Germany were presented.

"Margret Storck, who lives in the south of France, is closer in her painting to the optical illusions of deserts than to the light of the Hanseatic north of her native Bremen. Although her paintings of light are reminiscent of French Impressionism, Margret Storck's paintings have little to do with it. They are not plein-air paintings, but reminiscences of luminous atmospheres stretched to the point of artifice. All that is permitted in dream and mirage is revealed in these interiors, which are as if covered in color filters."
Excerpts from an essay by Prof. Dr. Eugen Blume, 2023 - Curator and art historian.

In a second exhibition room, "La Baume des Pèlerins", on the Grande Rue, you'll find further works by the artist herself.
Since 2020, she has also been organizing and presenting exhibitions by local and international artists.
