André Minaux was a French artist best known for his stylized Social Realist paintings and prints that expressed contemporary life and art historical reference through abstracted figurative compositions. Born on September 5, 1923 in Paris, France, he studied under French painter Maurice Brianchon at the Ecole National Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris from 1941 to 1945. Exhibiting his work as early as 1944 at the Parisian Salon d'Automne and theSalon des Indépendants, Minaux found considerable recognition and critical acclaim. His work was celebrated at the 1949 Prix de la Critque, and he was the subject of a solo exhibition at the Galerie des Impressions d'Art in 1946. Notably, Minaux produced a monumental painting over 20 meters in length at the Maison de la Pensée Française in Paris in 1960, continuing his theme of depicting women in interior spaces—though they gradually became more abstracted throughout his prolific career. Minaux died on October 4, 1986 in Touquin, France.

Andre Minaux
Andre Minaux was a Contemporary French painter, draftsman, lithographer, engraver, illustrator and sculptor. He belonged to the illustrious School of Paris, to the Young Painting movement in the 1950s and then to the group of Painters Witnesses of their time. His search for perfection in his work was compared to that of Matisse by Jean Bouret. (Minaux, Sauret Editions, 1977). He belonged to the illustrious School of Paris, to the Young Painting movement in the 1950s and then to the group of Painters Witnesses of their time. André Minaux embraces several periods: naturalism, rural, baroque, figurative and non-figurative. It was through the power of his line that he imbuded his compositions with an inexhaustible energy. In the heart of the post-war period, his works captured a euphoric context in a French expressionist realism. “It's the rhythm that brings unity to a painting,” confides André Minaux. “You could call Minaux's approach in his search for perfection 'Matissian'. (Jean Bouret, Minaux painter, Sauret editions, 1977). In 1950 The Museum of Modern Art of the city of Paris acquired one of his paintings In turn, the Tate Gallery in London quickly followed suite. He took part in the 1948 Salon d'Automne with 'Le Raccommodeur de filets', a work hailed by a multitude of art critics. A year later, his work was crowned by the critics' prize and displayed his work at the Salon des Jeunes Peintres, at the Claude gallery on rue de Seine in Paris. He exhibited at the Venice Biennale in 1952 and continued to exhibit Internationally up until his passing in 1986.
