Marie Thüler
The Artistic Journey of a Swiss Painter with a Ukrainian Soul
Marie Thüler is a Swiss contemporary painter with a Ukrainian soul, whose vibrant and romantic works captivate the imagination and celebrate the beauty of nature. She is also the founder of the ART’itude School of Fine Arts near Lausanne, where she works as an artist and educator.
Marie’s paintings, characterized by their vivid colors and vitality, are a testament to her rich inner world and her desire to share the lyrical beauty of nature with her audience. Her art is a harmonious blend of her cultural heritage and her profound appreciation for the landscapes that surround her.
Educated at the School of Fine Arts in Nikolaev and holding a degree in graphic and industrial design from the Maritime University in Nikolaev, Ukraine, Marie relocated to Lausanne, Switzerland, in 2006. The picturesque landscapes and the abundant natural beauty of her new homeland became an endless source of inspiration, propelling her to create new and enchanting collections.
The serene walks along Lake Geneva, with its crystal-clear waters and lively yachting competitions, inspired Marie to create her renowned "Regattas" collection. This body of work has been exhibited in galleries along the Swiss Riviera and in Paris, and it has become a cherished addition to private collections of modern art enthusiasts.
Marie is also enchanted by the charming Swiss and French villages, with their romantic ambiance of blooming gardens and historic houses nestled in greenery. These idyllic scenes are among her favorite subjects to paint.
In her commitment to nurturing the next generation of artists, Marie founded the ART’itude School of Fine Arts in 2013. The school quickly gained regional acclaim for its high academic standards, diverse curriculum, and its successful preparation of students for admission to prestigious design and visual arts institutions in Switzerland. Each year, hundreds of students engage in significant projects and exhibitions under her guidance.
Marie Thüler’s work has been exhibited in Switzerland in settings that bring art into direct dialogue with landscape, light, and place — a curatorial approach that continues to shape her artistic universe today.
