Mid 20th Century oil on canvas portrait of a mother and child by the noted Franco Spanish artist Pere Modesto Luis Creixams. The painting is signed bottom left and presented in a very fine patinated wood frame. This vibrant painting portrays an intimate moment between a mother and her child, capturing the depth of their bond. Creixams employs a dynamic palette of blues, greens, and warm earthy tones, creating a harmonious contrast that emphasizes the tenderness of their connection. The mother, clad in a vivid, multi-hued garment, appears to be in motion, her gentle gaze focused intently on the child cradled in her arms. The child, painted with delicate brushstrokes, mirrors her affectionate expression. The background features abstract floral and geometric shapes, adding depth and complexity. The expressive use of brushwork and colour conveys emotion, movement, and warmth. This painting stands as a timeless celebration of maternal love and the nuances of human emotion. Its captivating composition invites viewers to engage with the serene yet dynamic energy of the scene. Pere Créixams (9 November 1893 – 1965) was a Spanish painter and illustrator. A figurative and self-taught painter, his work reflects both the sources of the School of Paris and Catalan painting. Throughout his life, he divided his time, between Spain, his native country, and France, his adopted country. Pere Créixams began his studies at the Escuela Moderna (the Modern School). He travelled in 1917 to Paris, in Montparnasse. He made his debut with François Bernouard, at La Belle Édition in 1917. The meeting with the writer Florent Fels was decisive. He introduced him to all of intellectual Paris: the poet, art critic and writer André Salmon who nicknamed him Pierre the Printer, the Swiss writer Blaise Cendrars, Max Jacob, André Malraux, Raymond Radiguet, André Salmon and the painter Amedeo Modigliani. Creixams continued his art under the advice of the painter Othon Friesz and it was the time of his first successes. He exhibited in 1921 at the Café du Parnasse and at the Galerie Montaigne in Paris. His portraits of women are marked by the style of the illustrious representative of the School of Paris, Amedeo Modigliani. Florent Fels introduced him to the famous Parisian art dealer Paul Guillaume, who was located at 39, rue La Boétie. The latter offered to sign a contract to commit to delivering all his artistic production to him from November 1921 to June 1922. Creixams' paintings are exhibited alongside those of André Derain, Pablo Picasso, Maurice de Vlaminck, Henri Matisse and Amedeo Modigliani... Subsequently, Creixams worked with the gallery owner Pierre Loeb with whom he signed a contract in 1925. Located at the corner of Rue de Seine and Rue des Beaux-Arts, the famous Pierre Gallery which, from 1927 to 1963, represented many artists who marked the twentieth century (Braque, Klee, Chirico, Derain, Dufy, Gromaire, Léger, Miro, Pascin, Picasso, Soutine, Masson, Man Ray...) In painting, he turned to his Spanish ancestors, El Greco, Francisco de Goya, Diego Velázquez in order to affirm their artistic heritage. His admiration for Pablo Picasso was also felt in his production of the 1920s and he learned the lesson of the painter of the poor, the acrobats and the guitarists. From 1922, he settled in Montmartre and frequented the former members of the Bateau-Lavoir such as Pablo Picasso, Max Jacob, André Salmon. His friends in Florent Fels' literary circle supported him and Creixams then became friends with writers. The painter became an illustrator and collaborated with the writer and publisher duo Pascal Pia and René Bonnel on the unpublished poem by Charles Baudelaire, published from the original manuscript, which he adorned with eight etchings. In 1928, he exhibited at the Salon d'Automne and also took part in the Salon des Indépendants and the Salon des Tuileries. Creixams made a name for itself by exhibiting in Parisian galleries and salons. (Salon des Indépendants, Salon d'Automne, Salon des Tuileries). In Paris, he befriended Catalan artists, like him exiled, or staying in the French capital, such as Joaquín Torres García, Eugenio d'Ors and Joan Miró. In Barcelona, in the same way, Creixams maintained friendships. His meeting with the critic and painter Rafael Benet opened the doors to the Barcelona artistic world. Creixams was a total success: he was presented in the city's avant-garde galleries, in salons and his works attracted the eye of collectors (Galeríe Dalmau, Sala Parés, Syra Art Galleries). He exhibits his works regularly at the Exposició de Primavera [Spring Exhibition], Saló de Montjuïc. Creixams' painting was first inspired by the Catalan noucentista. This movement, which began around 1906 and lasted until the beginning of the civil war in 1936, was artistic and political and proposed a renewal of society. Eugenio d'Ors, the theoretician of this new aesthetic, wanted an artistic regeneration in Catalonia. Then Creixams quickly evolved towards a popular and direct realism claimed by the new generation of artists called Generació del 17. His landscapes are very constructed, geometrized, the result of a great admiration for Paul Cézanne. Creixams' attachment to his country was manifested in regular visits to Catalonia throughout his life. The summer period was privileged and the small fishing village of Tossa de Mar welcomed the artist during many stays. These returns to Catalonia bring Creixams a new inspiration and a more personal style. Tossa, a haven of peace and a site of great beauty, became a real artistic and intellectual centre under his leadership. Creixams and Benet brought with them their Catalan friends: Emili Bosch Roger, Francesc Camps Ribera, Josep Gausachs, Francesc Domingo, Josep Mompou, Manuel Humbert, Emili Grau Sala, Enric Casanovas. But the attraction went beyond the Catalan borders thanks to the knowledge of the artist who invited his Parisian friends, writers, led by Florent Fels, Georges Charensol, Georges Duthuit and artists such as Albert Marquet, Roger Wild, Georges Kars and Marc Chagall. After spending the summer of 1934 in Tossa in the company of many artists, Creixams did not return to Paris and remained in Catalonia until 1937. In fact, he was appointed professor at the Escola Superior de Paisatge d'Olot. Then came the year 1937, marking a historical and political turning point for Catalonia and Spain. Creixams is artistically committed to the Republicans. It was at that time that the Catalan government chose him to illustrate a propaganda work published by the Commissariat de Propaganda de la Generalitat. He experienced the first armed clashes in Barcelona, but finally, as the situation deteriorated, he returned to live in Paris on February 20, 1937. He left Catalonia in the middle of the civil war and only returned after an eleven-year exile. Following his committed drawings, in 1939 he produced canvases illustrating the Retirada depicting the flight to France of thousands of Spanish Republicans. This return to France, during the Second World War, and the period of the Occupation were difficult. But Montmartre once again welcomed him with open arms and Creixams met up with his friends from the Butte, writers, painters and songwriters. He then became an essential figure in Montmartre alongside Marcel Aymé, Pierre Mac-Orlan, Gen Paul among others. The traditional party atmosphere that reigns in Montmartre suits the bon vivant character of Creixams perfectly. The distance from his native country for several years resulted in a painting with deep Spanish accents. Creixams,in 1938, again participated in the various Parisian salons. In addition, he exhibits as a Montmartre artist in group exhibitions but also alongside his Catalan compatriots. Regular solo exhibitions are devoted to him by Parisian galleries. (Delpierre Gallery, Petridès Gallery, Élysée Gallery, Charpentier Gallery...) Around 1940, Creixams met Nana de Herrera (1905-1991) and from their love was born a child, Ramon de Herrera. Nana de Herrera, a major figure in Parisian social life during the Roaring Twenties, is a Spanish classical ballet dancer. She was the model for Max Ponty for his design of the famous Gitanes cigarette packet (from the Seita). She also played a few film roles, both before and after the war. It is famous, among other things, for the portrait made by Tamara de Lempicka...
