Danielle Siegelbaum

Danielle was born and raised in Paris. After a successful career in textile design (Ercea, Le Garage, Texunion, Daniel Hechter, Naf Naf, Boa, Couleur France…) and publishing (Hachette, Albin Michel, Mila, Lito, Hatier, Elle, Marie-Claire, Jeune et Jolie, Cosmopolitan…) Danielle and her family moved to New York in 2007.  New Yorker magazine regularly commissioned her illustrations. Sony hired her to design their Madison Avenue store windows. Danielle has been passionately painting since her adolescence. Now, she devotes her time almost exclusively to her art.  Danielle's clever mind creates an intriguing world using various media including acrylic, wood, linocuts, photography and all kinds of surprising objects. Fearless in her approach, her insatiable curiosity and energy guides her in the creation of a cinematic contemporary tapestry using vivid and contrasting colors.  References from a multitude of cultures, often in the form of signs and pictograms, participate to a mise-en-scene that mystifies the viewer with irony and ambiguity.
