Timeline

1967

Born in Nice, France

Mireille Lopez loved writing from her childhood; letters spoke to her. She also drew, escaping into her imagination, cultivating it as she practised. After studying science at university, she qualified as an industrial pharmacist. Her discovery of works by Cy Twombly, Jack Whitten, Frantisek Kupka, Georges Mathieu, Hans Hartung, and Zao Wou-Ki was an artistic revelation that led her to give free rein to her initial creative inclination.

Mireille Lopez chose to express herself through abstract painting to bring to life emotions, feelings, and relationships with others, capturing the beauty and fragility of the human. She draws on the Living for her creativity.
