Paul Reniere was born in Poperinge on November 23, 1956. He studied printmaking at the Saint-Lucas Academy for fine arts in Ghent where he graduated in 1980. In 1982 he became laureate for the “Gaverprijs” for painting and won the Europa prize for painting. He was appointed teacher of free graphics and painting at the Poperinge Academy of Art in 1981, a position he held until 2014.
Martine Depla was born in Ostend on December 29, 1954. She studied biology at Ghent University, but did not finish her studies. In 1991 she enrolled at the Poperinge Academy of Art where Paul Reniere became her teacher. In 1995 Martine Depla became laureate of the Louise Dehem prize for painting and in 1996 she won the prize for painting in Harelbeke, Belgium.
During the initial years of their relationship the artistic work of Paul Reniere and Martine Depla remained separate, and they exhibited under their own names. In 1995 they presented their work together for the first time under the name ‘Reniere & Depla’. Since then they have made no distinction as to whom painted which work.
