L’Hôtel by Aurore Guez

Where The Hoxton, Paris
When 2 May 2025 - 1 September 2025

There’s something new in the Hox Galery. 

Aurore Guez is a 24-year-old French painter based in Paris. Her work focuses on portraiture and the body, with particular attention to faces, looks and emotions. She seeks to reveal what makes each person unique: fragilities, tensions and rough edges. Her paintings, inspired by figures such as Lucian Freud, Otto Dix and Alice Neel, move away from smooth representations to offer a more direct, embodied style. 

She often exhibits her work in unusual places: a grocery store, a toilet, a bed store, inviting the viewer to change their gaze, posture and frame. 

Today, in residence at the Hoxton, Aurore Guez is taking over a hotel: a place inhabited, traversed and unstaged. There is no immersive device here, no imposed narrative. The works do not seek to captivate by force; they are simply there, as if observing. 

In this everyday setting, they seem to be watching as much as they are being watched.
