Artist context

About Richard Texier

Richard Texier (born 1955, Niort, France) is a French painter and sculptor who lives and works in Paris. Active since the early 1980s, Texier has built a practice centered on the forces of nature, translating geological, cosmic, and organic forms into large-scale canvases and sculptural works. He is known for his Elastogenèse series, which explores the tension between material deformation and regeneration. His work draws on a deep engagement with the natural world, and he has described his art as a celebration of the beauty and energy of the planet. Texier's output spans painting, sculpture, printmaking, and film, and he has been the subject of articles in publications such as Connaissance des Arts. With nearly 200 works documented in auction records, his pieces appear regularly in the international art market.
