Morceaux de moi, Valérie Dintrich

“Morceaux de moi, Valérie Dintrich” (January 2023 – April 2023) is a documentary that offers an intimate exploration of French artist Valérie Dintrich’s creative world. This film examines Dintrich’s artistic techniques, her connection to the French School of Painting, and the influences of masters such as Rouault, Fautrier, and Bissière on her work. Structured in two parts, the documentary provides insights into both Dintrich’s personal creative process and her role as a mentor to emerging artists. Through this dual focus, the film offers a comprehensive portrait of the artist’s life, work, and impact on the art world.
