Dimensions: (Frame) H 19" x W 15" ; (Painting) H 13" x W 8.75" Pierre-Henry sociétaire des grands Salons à Paris et vice-président de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts. PIerre Henry studied painting, the art of fresco and of etching in the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts, in Paris. Since 1950, his first exhibition, his talent led him to become one of the leaders of the French figurative expressionist school. He was of the period of Jean jansem and Pierre Serrier andBernard Buffet "I believe that the artists, painters, poets, and musicians, are our society’s prophets, its preachers. They bear witness to their anguish face to face with humanity in total confusion, which feels and knows it is threatened. At first smooth, the painting slowly acquires reliefs. The lacquer color is dazzling and the backgrounds alone make up genuine paintings. That especially sumptuous texture emphasizes their graphic precision. Smooth paint, flattened out, provides a lacquered effect, and brings to mind the great Flemish masters’ works. Of the generation of great post war French artists he has shown with Jean Pierre Alaux, Lucien Philippe Moretti, Edouard Pignon, Henri Michaux, Guy Cambier, Jean Fusaro, Mara Tran Long, Claude Mourier, Herick Michaud, Tony Buller French figurative expressionism painter. Pierre Clément Didier Henry is a member of the major Salons in Paris and vice-president of the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts. In his father Clément Henry's bakery, located rue Saint-Denis in Paris, Pierre-Henry had developed the habit of drawing. Noticed by the painter Martin Roch who introduced him to André Marchand, Gertrude Stein and the writer Blaise Cendrars, this made him want to study painting, the art of frescoes and engraving. Pierre-Henry took courses at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts in Paris and studied painting at the Poujon workshop who, appointed director of the Casa de Velázquez, left the workshop to Jean Dupas. He was notably a friend of the painters Maurice Boitel , Daniel du Janerand , Jean-Pierre Alaux , and André Sablé , of the Young Painting of the New School of Paris . His favorite themes are love, war, time, life, death constantly mixed together, destiny, as well as still lifes. His works are generally very colorful. He is renowned as one of the leaders of the contemporary color figurative school.
