World Reknown Parisian Artista Bea Aaronson Moves to San Miguel de Allende
Béa Aaronson was born in Paris, France, in 1956.
She is a self-taught multimedia artist, a published poet, author, and art critic, a lecturer and independent scholar, as well as a stage performer.
She now lives and works in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.
Aaronson has exhibited her work in France, Israel, Lebanon, Mexico, South Africa, and the USA. She was the official Piccolo Spoleto poster artist, in 1989, 2001, and 2005, and also created posters for The Alliance Française and the Jewish Cultural Center of Charleston, SC.
She holds a BA in History of Art, an MA in French Literature and a PhD in Philosophy and Comparative Literature.
Her creative journey is an adventure of the senses, a synaesthesia of energies and media…beyond frames, beyond categories. Oils, acrylics, canvas, wood, paper, found objects, watercolor, charcoal, monotype, etchings, collage, photography, ceramic, bronze casting, clay… Aaronson touches and transforms everything.
“Whatever I do, the image is the heartbeat of my identity. Multiple and “polypetal,” the image is dug within the core of being, harnessed within the energies of becoming. Images breathe life because the image is skin… and sap…at the same time…
Art is a walking memory… A memory of the senses…A memory of the soul….within and out of time…
