The KLE gallery, in the “city of painters” of Pont Aven
Lalou Kraffe, Brittany and Pont-Aven: a story of art and emotion between Lalou Kraffe and Pont-Aven, it is a true love story that has lasted for many years.
In her early days in Brittany, exhibiting in an art gallery in Pont-Aven represented an incredible opportunity for a young artist. The renowned Galerie B of Brigitte Laureau offered her this first chance, allowing her to present her work alongside established artists such as Marie Morel and Christine Morin .
Twenty years later, it is with a very special emotion and deep gratitude that Lalou Kraffe sees her works exhibited again in Pont-Aven, this time at the KLE Gallery, located at the foot of the museum.
This new space, dedicated to showcasing his poetic universe, presents both unique pieces and museum-quality art prints , produced in Auray.
This loyalty to Pont-Aven testifies to the strong link that unites the artist with this emblematic place in the history of art, and to the growing recognition of his work over the years.
Pont-Aven, a permanent exhibition space
For 25 years, the KLE gallery has passionately supported and accompanied the painting of Lalou Kraffe, dedicating an entire exhibition space to her.
Each new creation is for us a constant source of wonder and discovery.
We invite you to come and see for yourself the richness and poetry of his world during your visit to 2 rue du Général de Gaulle, in Pont-Aven , where the gallery welcomes you from Wednesday to Sunday from 11am to 6pm.
A unique experience to immerse yourself in the heart of a living and constantly evolving work.
A painter with a rich and unique universe
At the heart of Lalou Kraffe 's work is the desire to tell the story of women in all their lives, through portraits imbued with gentleness and poetry .
Her works, inspired by Japonisme and nature, bring a soothing and refined atmosphere to each interior, transforming the space into a true haven of serenity .
With humor and playfulness, her series "The Princess and the Pea" adds a touch of fantasy and joy to your decor.
Choosing a work by Lalou means inviting poetry and inspiration into your daily life, and giving your home a unique and vibrant touch.
Poetry and technique
The original paintings
Highly technical in his approach, a precious legacy from his time at the Boulle school, Lalou Kraffe combines rigor and spontaneity in each of his works.
Her classical expertise, nurtured by years of learning and careful observation, blends with a vivid inspiration and creative freedom that shines through in every story she tells us on the canvas.
Each painting is born from a subtle balance between meticulous application and the impulse of the moment: from the preparatory drawings recorded in his notebooks since the Boulle school, to the final touch, always driven by emotion and intuition.
This technical rigor never stifles the poetry that animates it; on the contrary, it enhances its delicacy and depth , offering the viewer works where beauty, sensitivity, and the pleasure of painting converge with evident clarity.
Made in the Auray workshop
Museum-quality art prints
Following in the footsteps of William Morris, an emblematic figure of the Arts and Crafts movement , who championed the idea that "art should enrich everyday life and be accessible to all," the KLE gallery shares this vision of openness and transmission.
We offer museum-quality art prints starting from 60 euros, so that everyone can explore the poetic and delicate world of Lalou Kraffe, without compromising on the quality or fidelity of the works.
Discover them at the KLE gallery and be inspired by a collection designed for all art lovers, regardless of their means.
30 copies
Limited series
For the past two years, we have been offering limited edition art prints in runs of 30 , carefully mounted in American-style frames made in Brittany. These museum-quality prints, numbered and signed by Lalou Kraffe, are available in several sizes to suit all spaces: 50 x 50 cm, 30 x 60 cm, 40 x 80 cm and 50 x 70 cm.
This range allows you to enjoy Lalou's poetic works at an affordable price, while benefiting from an elegant presentation and optimal preservation thanks to the use of 100% cotton Canson papers and Epson Ultrachrome pigment inks, guaranteed against UV and depigmentation for 70 years and more.
Each print is mounted on a wooden support and then inserted into its American box frame, offering a rendering close to the original work.
A unique opportunity to immerse oneself in the delicate world of Lalou Kraffe, with exclusive and limited pieces that appeal to art lovers in France and internationally.
A team of enthusiasts
Through encounters and a shared passion for the artistic universe of Lalou Kraffe, our team has naturally grown.
What do we have in common? The profound emotion that Lalou's unique expression evokes in us.
Find us in our various exhibition venues, where his poetic and delicate work comes to life: in Auray, in the heart of Brittany, in Pont-Aven, an emblematic city of art, and in Honfleur , a port of inspiration and charm.
Each space is an invitation to immerse oneself in the sensitive and captivating universe of the artist, where each visit becomes an experience rich in discoveries and emotions.
