Ariane Garnier - Biography
Exhibitions
Ten solo exhibitions distributed in Costa Rica, Guatemala and the United States.
Twenty-eight group exhibitions in her home country Costa Rica, Guatemala, Spain, Ecuador and the United States. It is worthy of special mention her presence at the Biennale Women in Textile Art in Venezuela and at the Paris Salon, France.
Her group participations/performances have taken place at different museums, art galleries and companies in Spain and Costa Rica.
Education
Bachelor Degree in Graphic Arts specialized in Painting —graduated from the University of Costa Rica. She has taken several courses related to her profession.
Focused on her work and engaged in defining and developing an integral concept of humankind, Garnier has been granted different awards at national and international contests, among them, it is worth mentioning the award for the Mural Contra el Dolor (“Mural against the Pain”) located at the Hospital Nacional de Niños (National Children’s Hospital) in her country.
Awards
In 2006, Garnier was selected by the Panel of Judges on the 8th Art Meeting in Genalguacil to develop a work for the collection of such Museum-Town in Malaga, Spain.
That same year, she is awarded the First Prize on the 4th International Biennale in Textile Art.
Social Responsibility in the Arts
She has been devoted to reinforcing creativity and self-esteem —being invited by the Outdoor Museum of Modern Art in Punta Islita, Guanacaste, to be instrumental in the creation of a mural painted by the children of the day care nursery in the town of Islita.
In 2004, Garnier also taught Children’s Painting Workshops to patients at the Hospital Nacional de Niños in San José.
In 2006, she supervised children’s murals at the Manzanillo Elementary School as the main activity of the program CARIBE CREATIVO (“Creative Caribbean”) of the Almendros & Corales Foundation in Manzanillo —aimed at recovering traditions and values from the cultural diversity of the Caribbean.
Garnier is currently running the creative program Bosque de las Mujeres (“Women’s Woods”) of the Tayutic Foundation in Turrialba, Costa Rica, a group performance/installation of personal empowerment involving women from the towns of Sitio de Mata and El Silencio in Turrialba and groups of women from San José. El Bosque de las Mujeres was formally opened on July 7, 2007 in primeval woods of the place. This same concept got her international invitations to Spain, Venezuela and Sarasota, Florida, USA.
In that same year, she painted a mural together with Génesis next to the fire department in Santa Ana.
Professor, coach and curator
As a professor, she teaches private classes on arts and creativity at her workshop.
She is also a curator for the Fundación por el Patrimonio (“Heritage Foundation”) of the Presidential House in Costa Rica.
Garnier is the creator and coach of the concept of team building through art —making viable an encounter with oneself and “the other”, a program intended for companies and institutions.
Recent Exhibitions
In November, 2007, performance/intervention ARTE EN EQUIPO (“Group Art”) at the Universidad de Las Palmas in Gran Canaria, Official School of Arts and Crafts, Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, and School of Arts and Crafts, Renacimiento, Madrid.
