“Wall of Water”- by Didier Nolet
Didier Nolet, a Parisian artist with a rich heritage in French art education from Ecole des Beaux Arts Paris, embarked on a new artistic journey upon arriving in America. His move to Chicago was not just for love, as he joined his equally talented wife Nona, but also to explore a fresh realm of art appreciation. Trained under the same masters as Monet, Renoir, and Degas in Paris, Didier's impact in Chicago has been profound.
Chicago, known for its vibrant art scene, warmly welcomed Didier Nolet, with notable art critic Alan Artner from the Chicago Tribune lauding his paintings. His unique style of romantic realism has captivated galleries and collectors alike, stretching from New York to California.
Located in the historic Pullman Artist Lofts, Didier's studio serves as a treasure trove of art history and creativity. His masterpiece "Wall of Water," a 6'x8' oil painting, has garnered universal acclaim. Displayed at "Artists at the Pier" at Navy Pier Chicago, this artwork stands adjacent to a glass wall overlooking the breathtaking natural wonder of Lake Michigan.
Didier Nolet undeniably stands as one of the premier French-American artists of our time, blending his French roots with the vibrancy of American artistry.
