About the Item
This is a fun and rich work with incredible paint application, of a busy summer's day at the Beach. Andre Cottavoz is collected and loved for his expressive and incredibly think paint use! This painting is of deep dark blues and does need to be in a light filled area and have a picture light on it. It is a desirable subject and hard to find on the Post Impressionist front - subject matter like this. However, our image makes it a tad more "brilliant" in color so placement in a home is important as it needs the best light it can have to show properly.
Cottavoz has a great bio, good auction history and gallery representation! The frame is hand done and modern with 22 Karat leafing.
The canvas size within the frame is 18.25 x 24 so we have listed its total dimensions.

André Cottavoz
Born in 1922 in Saint-Marcellin near the town of Grenoble in France, André Cottavoz was passionate about painting from an early age. Encouraged by his mother, an artist herself, Cottavoz entered the Fine Arts School in Lyon at the age of 18. Despite having been pressed into service during WWII, Cottavoz continued to paint and draw through the early 1940s. After the end of War he, along with Pierre Coquet a fellow student from Lyon, co-founded a group of painters who called themselves Noisme, or Sanzisme (without ism), also known as the Lyon School of New Figuration. Comprised of artists under the age of 30, their sole purpose was to paint “in the light” with no particular defining or restricting technique, rejecting all current artistic trends. In 1953 Cottavoz was awarded the Fénénon Prize by the University of Paris. Such a commendation served to boost his reputation. A close friendship of Japanese art dealer Kiyoshi Tamenaga, whom he met in 1957, opened doors to Japan for Cottavoz hosting exhibitions of his work at his gallery in Tokyo. He died in 2012.

- Le Paysage, French sceneBy André CottavozLocated in Greenwich, CTPainted in 1961 in the south of France, Le Paysage's jewel tones and energetic, thick brushwork lure you into not a literal landscape of paint and asks you to discern it's true content. It has charm, expressiveness, abstracted content and idiosyncratic nature! A delight to hang in a smaller intimate spot. The framing is carefully done with silvered 24 karat leafing around the float area of the frame and then a wide panel to allow the viewer to focus in on the composition itself and the texture of the paint. Andre Cottavoz is very well noted artist of the French and Paris school of art...Category
