Laurent Schkolnyk is one of the very few masters of the mezzotint
medium -- anywhere in
the world. Born in Paris in 1953, he has been a long-term staple
in
the Boulevard Fine Art inventory.
His mezzotints are richly colored
and his imagery is serene and beautiful. They are a "must have"
for any serious art collector who strives for quality and value by a
true master.
Schkolnyk studied drawing and
etching at the Beaux Arts School in Nantes, France, where he became a
student of professor Guimezanes in 1971. He then initiated his
study of the mezzotint technique.
Since the 1980s most of his solo
exhibitions have been in France and Japan. His works appear in
the permanent collections of the Los Angeles County Museum and the
Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco.
Boulevard Fine Art has been proud to make available to the world the mezzotints
of Laurent Schkolnyk. There is no artist who has better command
of the arduous medium.
