About the Item
Mixed media on plywood, signed on back.
Armand Avril, né à Lyon en 1926, est un peintre vivant à Cotignac dans le Var. Il est surtout connu pour les assemblages qu'il a réalisés à partir de 1968. D'origine modeste, cependant très tôt intéressé par l'art et les musées où le poussait son père, il s'essaie d'abord à la peinture. Cependant, Avril ne commence à trouver son véritable style qu'à l'âge de quarante-deux ans.
Enfant, il est un habitué des musées de Lyon qu’il fréquente sur les conseils de son père. Adulte, sa passion pour la collection l’incite à se nourrir des arts premiers et d’artistes comme Gaston Chaissac ou Boris Bojnev. Ses œuvres et ses techniques le rattachent à la famille des créateurs récupérateurs comme Louise Nevelson (1899-1986) ou des artistes du mouvement Dada et leurs successeurs. Il partage aussi avec ses prédécesseurs dadaïstes une volonté de s’affranchir des conventions idéologiques et artistiques en vigueur.
Il ne peut être rattaché à un seul courant artistique car il s'est inspiré de tous les artistes qui l'ont entouré au cours de sa vie. Cette diversité lui permet alors de créer un véritable univers artistique propre à l'artiste qui se fait connaitre pour ses montages en bouchons de liège dont les œuvres "Mer à Cassis" débutées en 1970.
