Hector Saunier
Hector Saunier was born in Buenos Aires. The Argentine painter-engraver after various events moved to Paris in 1961. In 1966, he met Stanley William Hayter and decided to study engraving at Atelier 17. He quickly became a master of color and light, investing all his wealth creatively at the service of the taille-douce technique. Saunier became an assistant at the Atelier, worked in close collaboration with Hayter for 20 years. In 1978, he was appointed Associate Director of Atelier 17 and directed it during Hayter's absence. Saunier is now co-director with Juan Valladares of Atelier Contrepoint, the name that was given to the old Atelier 17 after Hayter's death in 1988. Continuing in tradition, the Atelier Contrepoint is an experimental atelier frequented by artists and students from all over the world, a place of exchange and teaching.
