Frédéric Chaume

£0.00
Frederic Chaume’ work is based on highlighting of construction sites by drawing and engraving.

Chaume first takes research time through in situ sketches which uses as model for his printing work.

The site is his laboratory: he notes, records and draws, step by step, life of the site, artifacts and progress of the construction. The series of engravings shown here, “Fluctuat ad capella”, is the result of two years of work between until 2024 on the construction of the Austerlitz storage Basin in Paris. For his engraving work, bordering on abstraction, Chaume uses the technique of aquatint on copper combined with lithographic pencil. His works offer another glimpse at the world of architecture and aim to participate in the manifest of portraits of contemporary cities.

Chaume graduated in interior design at the Camondo School and teaches drawing at the Paris-Malaquais National School of Architecture. Since 2015, he has participated in numerous solo and collective exhibitions. In 2021, he won the Jane Pêcheur Taylor Foundation Grand Prize and a nomination for Institut de France Mario Avati Prize.

His work is held in several private and public collections in France, including Carnavalet-Histoire de Paris Museum.
