About the Item
Claude Sauthier est né à Genève le 2 février 1929, décédé à Genève le 4 octobre 2016. Suit l'Ecole des Arts décoratifs de Genève pour devenir graphiste.
Peu après l'obtention de son diplôme, il quitte Genève pour le Pérou avec son épouse Liliane Germond. Le couple aura trois enfants, dont une fille qui décède à l'âge de 14 ans, en 1968. Il exercera son métier de graphiste à Lima pendant 4 ans. De retour à Genève où il restera le reste de sa vie, il travaille quelques temps pour le bureau de graphisme Humbert, puis ouvre son propre bureau.
Parallèlement, il enseigne aux Arts décoratifs, activité qu'il exercera jusqu'à sa retraite.
Dès sa jeunesse, Claude Sauthier s'est intéressé au dessin et à la peinture.
Il peint essentiellement des paysages. Pendant une longue période (années 60-70), il peint à la gouache des marines sur la côte Atlantique, des bords de mer en Vendée ou en Bretagne. Puis, fasciné par les scènes d'hiver de Brueghel dont il voit les tableaux à Vienne, il commence à peindre des paysages d'hiver. Il acquiert la technique de la peinture à l'huile, qu'il pratique sur toile ou sur bois préparés à l'ancienne.
Il choisit ses paysages dans la région genevoise, en Savoie, en Gruyère, et parfois en Suisse allemande. Ses tableaux sont appréciés, et il exposera régulièrement dans une galerie bernoise, puis à Lausanne (Galerie d'Etraz). Il développe aussi une belle maîtrise de l'aquarelle, qu'il exerce lors de voyages en Ecosse, à Venise ou en France. Une opération des yeux entraîne une perte de la vision en couleur, et dans ses dernières activités d'artiste, il dessine des paysages à la mine de plomb. Les cotes et indices de l'artiste établis reposent sur 47 adjudications en peinture et dessin-aquarelle. L'adjudication la plus ancienne enregistrée est une peinture vendue en 1992 chez Dobiaschofsky Auktionen AG et la plus récente est une peinture vendue en 2019.
