Alan Walsh is a contemporary artist whose work radiates the timeless elegance and sun-drenched charm of a bygone era—filtered through a sleek, modern lens. British-born and based in the South of France, Walsh has built a signature visual language rooted in the golden age of the French Riviera, classic motorsport culture, and high fashion.
His art is instantly recognizable: refined silhouettes, bold outlines, and saturated yet sophisticated color palettes that harken back to vintage travel posters and mid-century advertising. Yet within this retro framework, Walsh injects a contemporary playfulness—a wink of joy in every pose, every curve of a race car, every splash of turquoise poolside glamour. His work is at once cinematic and minimal, graphic yet warm, stylized yet deeply evocative.
Walsh’s compositions often celebrate the intersection of style, speed, and serenity. Fashionable women recline in 1960s-inspired swimwear. Sleek convertibles glide down coastal highways. Grand Prix racers accelerate into abstraction. There’s a sense of effortless luxury in every piece—an aspirational world where life moves beautifully, and art captures the best of it.
Internationally recognized, Alan Walsh has exhibited at premier events such as the Monaco Grand Prix and the Cannes Film Festival, and has collaborated with global brands including McLaren, TAG Heuer, and the Automobile Club de Monaco. His collectors span the worlds of sport, fashion, and design, drawn to the nostalgic allure and vibrant sophistication of his work.
With each work, Walsh invites us into a world both dreamlike and distinctly his own—where elegance meets escapism, and the past is forever in style.
