Jérôme Allavena is a French artist exploring the potentialities of the stroke, the layout and the line. In his work, drawing becomes a place of experimentation. Different starting points are subject to systems of codification, translation and mise-en-abîme. Through this process of deconstruction/reconstruction, he questions the image through its various dimensions and reveals new points of view, which are difficult to decode at a glance.

Jérôme Allavena obtained his DNSEP at the EESI of Angoulême (France) in 2008. His work was noticed in 2009 during the 59th edition of Jeune Création in 2009, then during collective exhibitions in art centers such as FRAC Poitou-Charentes (2010, 2014), Palais de Tokyo (2010, 2011) or the Fondation d’entreprise Ricard (Paris, 2012), but also in galleries with Galerie Anne Barrault (Paris, 2012), Galerie De Roussan (2012, Biennale de Belleville) and Galerie Houg (Paris, 2015). He also participated in residencies such as Cité des Arts in Paris (2009-2010) and Le Pavillon at the Palais de Tokyo (2010-2011) or the Hiroshima art document in Japan (2012).
