ALEXIS RAOULT

Alexis Raoult was born in the Paris area in 1993. He is a young artist with an atypical career. At sixteen, he entered the Apprentis d'Auteuil professional high school for young people in difficulty. They teach him electricity. He spends his time drawing in his notebooks. At eighteen, he left everything and moved to Brittany.

He made a living from odd jobs, always scribbling in notebooks. Completely self-taught, Alexis Raoult decided to devote himself to his art and began his artistic career at the age of twenty-five when a Paris gallery decided to exhibit his work. This was followed by other exhibitions in galleries in France and then rapidly in the United States. He won several major drawing prizes and, in 2021, the Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris bought two of his works. He thus became one of the youngest artists to enter the collections of a national museum.

He was the subject of the Headliners section of Télérama and according to the Artists magazine "Alexis Raoult sublimates the animal portrait".
