Paris-based contemporary artist, Julien Marinetti enters Carousel Fine Art. Known for merging painting and sculpture into a single, expressive form, Julien was trained at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière, Marinetti builds his work through a hands-on, process-driven practice rooted in craftsmanship and gesture.

Best known for his Doggy John series, Marinetti hand-models each sculpture in clay, casts it in bronze, and paints directly onto the surface. He treats the sculpture not as a finished object, but as a support for painting, allowing color, movement, and texture to unfold in the round. This approach transforms familiar forms into dynamic, three-dimensional paintings that reward close viewing from every angle.

Marinetti’s work has been exhibited internationally in major cities including Paris, New York, London, Singapore, and Shanghai, with notable presentations at institutions such as the Grand Palais. His sculptures are widely collected by private collectors, institutions, and cultural foundations.
