Marion Delarue

Marion Delarue is a French artist whose multi-award-winning work plays on the confusion between authenticity and imitation, between nature and artifice, through simulacra, pretense, and lures. Delarue has taken part in several artist residencies, including the Villa Kujoyama, in Kyoto, in 2019; the Françoise van den Bosch Fondation, in Amsterdam, in 2023; and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, in 2025. Her works are held in the permanent collections of prestigious institutions such as the Stedelijk Museum, in Amsterdam; the RISD Museum, in Providence, RI, US; and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, which will soon host her for a solo exhibition.
