Rene Chavelle was born in Brussels, Belgium in 1953. His first love was music, in particular the cello, which he studied as a child in Paris.
Sketching, however, was his form of relaxation, and by the age of seventeen Chavelle was selling his sketches of Paris street scenes on the sidewalks of the left bank. His work became moderately well known and he participated in several group shows in Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam, and Athens.
In 1983 Chavelle moved to Mykonos, Greece where he painted the great architecture and landscapes of Greece in oil on canvas. For a number of years he sold work from his own Studio Chevelle” on the island.
Chavelle’s technique varies but most often consists of thinly brushed oils over gessoed canvas. He occasionally works in heavy oils with classic brushwork, but most often the oil is finely and meticulously applied. As he mixes his paint with spirits rather than linseed oil and applies only a light coat of varnish, his canvases have a warm satin glow rather than a glossy finish.
His works have a Surrealist quality combining incredible trompe l'oeil hyperrealism an almost flat air brush stylet technique. Along the lines of Burhan Dogancay and Yrjo Edelmann. Chavelle was influenced by the Photo Realist Movement in California. Artists like Robert Bechtle, Charles Bell, Chuck Close, Robert Cottingham and Richard Estes and Audrey Flack.
The word Photorealism was coined by Louis K. Meisel in 1969 and appeared in print for the first time in 1970 in a Whitney Museum catalogue for the show "Twenty-two Realists." It is also sometimes labeled as Super-Realism, New Realism, Sharp Focus Realism, or Hyper-Realism. As a full-fledged art movement, Photorealism evolved from Pop Art and as a counter to Abstract Expressionism as well as Minimalist art movements in the late 1960s and early 1970s in the United States.
