Laurence Pecquet
The artist was born in 1952 in Paris. She completed higher studies in ethnology in the capital. In 1978 she went to Carrara to the marble quarries (Italy) for an introduction to marble work. From 1990, she worked in Philippe Lang's sculpture workshop "Eloge de la main" in the Yvelines department:
- Working the land with and without a model
- Learning different molding techniques: lost hollow, elastomer.
Since 1995, abandonment of modeling work and only working on plaster with fabric and frame. Since September 1998, she has been based and working in Vézénobres in the Gard.
"The work that I do is part of a moment, a movement, a situation. Regarding the figurative, it is not a question of reproducing reality but rather of reconstituting an attitude of a being in movement . A sculpture is completed when the overall impression "atmosphere" that I wanted to give is there."

Denise Eyer-Oggier
Originally from Switzerland, Denise Eyer-Oggier exhibits her paintings at Aux Augustins from 2013 to the present day.
"I LIVE IN A LANDSCAPE - There are colors and features that only occur six thousand feet above the plains and shores. Denise Eyer Oggier lives there, in Valais Switzerland. Her gaze rests in the contemplation of the great spaces crossed with a lively and alert air. She carries within herself the transparency of the glaciers of the Alps. Her painting reflects the cutting light of the mountains. In her journey, in her ascents and descents, she is always of itself that it experiences, drawing the rib of the destiny of men, a landscape within which is transformed, indefinitely variable."
