About the Item
French Provencal landscape, oil on canvas, by noted artist Jean Arène. Signed bottom right, titled, signed and dated to the back of the board. Presented in original grey patinated 'Arene' frame as supplied by the artist.
A wonderful view of the sunlit corner of a Provencal park landscape. In his typical expressionist style, Arene has captured all the charm of a tranquil scene, the majestic trees standing guard over a clay path as it wends its way through the surrounding grass and flowers. Arene manages to give 'character' to the trees in his simple almost abstract handling of the outlines. He has the ability to capture the feeling of place which gives all his paintings a charm and allure.
Jean Arène was a student of August Chabaud, a highly sought after French artist in Provence who in turn took his inspiration from Cezanne. Arène's paintings are now highly sought after by collectors worldwide.
After a stint in 1949 at the School of Fine Arts in Marseille, then a year in Paris in 1950 with the poster artist Paul Colin, Jean Arène returned to Marseille the following year where he founded the "Group of under 30' with Trofimoff, Trabuc, Zutter and Mela and began painting as an autodidact, while earning a living in advertising and decoration.
His first exhibition dates from 1956. Then, from 1957, Jean Arène left the city for the countryside, which served as his base for many trips, often hitchhiking and backpacking, but always accompanied by a pencil and a sketchbook: Spain, Morocco in 1957, West Africa in 1960, (followed by an exhibition in Dakar), Northern Europe (Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Lapland , Lofoten, Netherlands and Belgium) In 1963 a trip to Tunisia. Then in 1966 his first retrospective in Toulon.
In 1970 Arène left for the United States and Mexico, followed two years later by West Africa again: Tassili, the Sahara and Algeria.
He exhibited extensively in Provence and the Gard: Aix-en-Provence, Uzès, Avignon, La Ciotat and Cassis. But his travels also lead him to exhibit abroad: Dakar, Ouagadougou, French cultural centers in Algeria, Morocco and Indonesia, where he also started preparing one of his books which later became a series.
