About the Item
Late 20th Century French drawing on Canson paper of a lady in a chair by Gilbert Pastor. Signed bottom left. In his distinctive style with some use of body colour. Acquired directly form the artist.
Born in Marseille, Gilbert Pastor settled in Aups, the southern gateway to the Gorges du Verdon. Discreet, self-taught artist, drawing and painting since adolescence, he met in 1948 the Russian painter and poet Boris Bojnev who would become his mentor. With him he enters "into the religion of painting". In 1975, he met the Lyon gallery owner Paul Gauzit, who became his friend and with whom he exhibited regularly. The number of works by Gilbert Pastor is estimated at around 800 canvases and 1,500 drawings, but he never dated or titled them. He is an artist of intimacy, of hidden suffering, of internalization, of closed houses where darkness reigns and where one is careful not to let the sun enter. If Gilbert Pastor's palette is rich, everything on his canvases blends into dead-leaf tones, wise and light ochres and drowsy greens where the rebellious brilliance of a harsh blue sometimes emerges; painter of stripping, he always emerges in his work an atmosphere that is both bewitching and magical which encourages contemplation. The artist died in the middle of summer 2015.
Né à Marseille, Gilbert Pastor s'installera à Aups, la porte Sud des Gorges du Verdon. Artiste discret, autodidacte, dessinant et peignant depuis l'adolescence, il rencontre en 1948 le peintre et poète russe Boris Bojnev qui deviendra son mentor. Avec lui il entre « dans la religion de la peinture ». En 1975, il rencontre le galeriste lyonnais Paul Gauzit, qui devient son ami et chez qui il exposera régulièrement. On estime à environ 800 toiles et 1500 dessins le nombre d'oeuvres de Gilbert Pastor, mais il ne les a jamais ni datées, ni titrées. Il est artiste de l'intimité, de la souffrance cachée, de l'intériorisation, des maisons fermées où règne la pénombre et où on se garde de faire entrer le soleil. Si la palette de Gilbert Pastor est riche, tout se fond sur ses toiles en des tonalités feuille-morte, des ocres sages et légers et des verts assoupis où pointent parfois l'éclat rebelle d'un bleu dur ; peintre du dépouillement, il se dégage toujours dans son oeuvre une atmosphère à la fois envoutante et magique qui pousse à la contemplation. L'artiste est disparu au coeur de l'été 2015.

Expressionist Cafe Scene, Bagnoles, Au Casino, Circle of Fikret Saygi Moualla
Located in Cotignac, FR
Mid 20th Century French Expressionist gouache and watercolour on paper of a café scene. The painting is signed bottom right but as yet undeciphered. The work is titled to the back of the framing 'Bagnoles. Au Casino' and numbered. Presented in plain wood frame under glass, probably the artist's original framing.
A lively and colourful scene of waiters serving their patrons in the bar of a casino. The servers are dressed in crisp linen jackets, black trousers, bow ties whilst balancing their trays of drinks. The customers are dressed in all their colourful finery for an evening at the tables. The artist has captured the feeling of the scene, noise, bustle, conversations and excitement. Bold splashes of colour animate the scene and create an almost Fauvist perspective. The painting in style, execution and subject matter is very much like the work of Fikret Muallâ who was painting at this period.
Fikret Muallâ Saygı ) was a 20th-century avant-garde painter of Turkish descent. His work reflects influences from Expressionism and Fauvism, with subject matter focusing on Paris street life, social gatherings such as cafés and circuses. Though born in Istanbul he spent much of his career painting in Paris...
