Jacques Pinon
Composition in Red and Blue, French Abstract Expressionist City Scape

1970's

About the Item

Mid 20th Century French Abstract Expressionist oil on canvas of a landscape city view by Jacques Pinon. The painting is signed bottom right. Pinon was noted as an artist in various mediums including stained glass. His appreciation of colours and forms are very evident in this painting where he has captured a landscape with jewel like colours and forms. The subject could equally be a medieval cathedral or village with Roman viaduct. Jacques Pinon was a 'Renaissance Man', accomplished in many aspects of art and literature. he painted, worked in stained glass as well as sculpture and tapestry - he studied and worked at the National School of Decorative Art of Aubusson. He was also a poet and published writer. “All the forms of expression of the artist Jacques Pinon are brought together. A journey of fabulous encounters for this artist, his work is impressive, not to mention his work in collaboration with very great artists." Pinon exhibited extensively and internationally including a major exhibition in PARIS in 1954. “JAZZ.HOT” alongside Dali – Courtaud – (les) Delaunays – Dubuffet – Duffy – Leger and Mondrian. He also an exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art – Sacred Art Salon in 1960 in PARIS, at the Salomon Guggenheim Museum in New York and the Foundation Royaumont. His tapestries were exhibited in France in 1969 in the city of Lyon at the Galerie Verrières with GilioliI and Lurcat. His painting and sculpture are at the crossroads of several universes. Lively and luminous like a Corrida afternoon, the light reminds us of the work the artist did for the stained glass windows, he plays with both using different techniques and styles and his thirst for discovering new forms of expression. He came from a noted family of artist and artisans. His great-uncle was Alfred de Musset; his great-grandfather and his grandfather both Courtots from the Gobelins factory in Paris, and his family were all friends of Rodin. In 1952, his meeting with the architect Le Corbusier was a close collaboration around projects carried out with Lucien Herve, including monumental frescoes and furniture. He designed and made tapestries in Aubusson in the workshops of Picaud and Fadat where he worked alongside Calder– Aujame – Braque – Toffoli and where he also met with Cocteau.
