Marie Ducaté Born in Lille in 1954, Marie Ducaté holds a DNSEP from the École des Beaux-Arts in Aix-en-Provence. She lives and works in Marseille. Fundamentally a painter, Marie Ducaté has progressively moved beyond the canvas to embrace all the forms, techniques and media of an expanded pictoriality, abolishing the divides between painting and sculpture, figuration and abstraction, art and applied art. Referring to historical figures such as Annie Albers, Sonia Delaunay and the Blooms Bury Group, she is attentive to the technical, theoretical and political concerns of Arts & Crafts. Her work is exhibited in numerous museums, art centers and galleries in France and abroad. She worked at CIRVA (Centre international de recherche sur le verre et les arts plastiques, Marseille) from 1985 to 2003. She has created several works in public spaces, in Marseille, Saint-Fons, Lyon and Houston. Her work can be found in public and private collections (FRAC Languedoc-Roussillon, FRAC Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur, Institut d'Art Contemporain, Musée Fodor in Amsterdam, Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, Fonds National d'Art Contemporain, Houston MFAH, municipal collections in Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Martigues, Béthune, Narbonne).
