Camille Hilaire was born in Metz in 1916. From a modest background, he first became a house painter, then began drawing and painting on the spot.
Unwilling to be drafted by the German army as an Alsatian-Lorrainer, he went underground and enrolled under an assumed name, Leblanc, at the Beaux-Arts in Paris during the Occupation. It was during this period that he befriended André Lhote.
In 1947, Hilaire was appointed professor of drawing and decorative composition at the École nationale supérieure d'art de Nancy, a position he held until 1958. He competed for the Prix de Rome in 1950, winning 2nd runner-up prize. From 1950 to 1951, he was a resident at Casa de Velázquez in Madrid.
Alternating between post-cubism and figuration, his brightly colored works are luminous. Camille Hilaire represented the nuanced expression of composition. Starting with effective structures, he harnessed the power of color and achieved an admirable and constant sense of calm, breadth and grandeur in translating motifs and elements, which never prevented him from expressing a burning passion for creating and sharing.
As for landscapes, Hilaire knew how to dictate their structure without apparent constraint, adding the fresh, piquant green that so often characterized him. In this way, nature and the elements became a pretext for the artist to push color to achieve the desired effect.
He died at his estate in Fourges, Eure (Normandy), and was buried in the Cimetière de l'Est (Metz) in 2004.

Camille Hilaire
Camille HILAIRE (1916-2004) was a French painter and weaver from Metz in Eastern France. He attended the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and was also tutored by André Lhote. Camille Hilaire is subtle in his composition. He did away with efficient structures, he held power with colour and achieved a wonderful, consistent sense of calm, amplitude and greatness by translating patterns and elements, which never prevented him from expressing a burning passion for creating and sharing. His nudes were remarkable, with perfect curves, coiled with charm and set in a context in which their sensual fullness imposed itself with provocative grace. As for his landscapes, Camille Hilaire could determine the structure without apparent constraints, overlaying a fresh, spicy green that is so characteristic of them. Thus, nature and elements they become the pretext upon which the artist "pushed" the colour to get the effect felt. Over time, a dozen monographs have been devoted to him as well as documentaries and films. He leaves behind a large body of work who strongly influenced the French painters of the mid-twentieth century.

Etienne Cail est né en 1991.
C’est dans le cadre de l’atelier deSèvres, qu’Etienne Cail conforté par ses pairsdécidera de prendre son envol dans le mondedes peintres.Nous somme en 2009, il n’a alors que 18 anset affaire rarissime il a déjà trouvé son style,sa « pâte ». Après la représentation de l’atelier qu’il a réalisé sous tous les angles, EtienneCail s’est engagé à construire « ses gueules »,des adversaires qu’il défiera à grand coup de pinceaux.
Au coeur des ateliers de cette Chine actuelle il découvre cet art à la fois puissant et subtil. Ici, les rebelles du monde de l’art ne sont pas des dissidents au sens strict du terme, ils se battent pour l’indépendance de la
création dans un pays où la liberté est encadrée. Cette capacité à créer une force intelligible malgré ces contraintes force l’admiration du jeune peintre qui se retourne sur d’anciennes provocations artistiques qu’il jugera dés lors trop faciles.Dés son retour en France, la création d’une nouvelle série de portraits appuient déjà cette nouvelle maturité et un nouveau projet prend parallèlement vie autour d’un songe: si tous les grands moments de l’histoire et les plus grands chefs...
