Andre Brasilier – Heure Rose

Description

Andre Brasilier, Heure Rose is an original colored lithograph. Andre Brasilier, Heure Rose is signed in the lower right corner and numbered in the lower left margin.

Born into an artistic family in 1929, Andre Brasilier has spent more than half a century creating canvasses that are a blend of abstraction, expressionism, and something distinctly his own.  His works often feature themes and motifs such as horses, nature, music, and women.  Brasilier’s art is known around the world, from Japan to the United States.  He was recently the subject of an exhibition/retrospective at St. Petersburg, Russia’s Hermitage Museum.

Andre Brasilier, Heure Rose exhibits Brasilier’s interest in portraying women and the his appreciation for Japanese prints that provided him with a significant aesthetic and philosophical inspiration.

In 1952 he received a grant from the Florence Blumenthal Foundation, and in the following year, when he was only 23, won the Premier Grand Prix de Rome, entitling him to study at the Académie de France in Rome. His first solo exhibition of paintings, focusing on music, was held at the Galerie Drouet in 1959. Over the years Brasilier has exhibited in numerous exhibitions all over the world including France, Germany, Japan, Switzerland, Canada, the United States, Russia, The Netherlands, Korea and Hong Kong – over one hundred solo exhibitions in twenty different countries. His travels have inspired several series of paintings, as well as ceramics, mosaics, theatrical sets and book illustrations. He had his first retrospective of one hundred artworks from 1950 -1980 at the Château de Chenonceau in 1980, and a retrospective exhibition at the Musée Picasso – Château Grimaldi in Antibes, the French Riviera, in 1988.He has since been honoured with major retrospectives both at Russia’s renowned State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg in 2005 and at the Museum Haus Ludwig für Kunstausstellungen Saarlouis in Germany in 2007. Across the globe and for the last five years, we’ve been the witnesses to a revival in the appreciation of Brasilier’s work.
