About the Item
'The Marne' by Paul Crotto, 1964.
Paris, Museum of Modern Art, Salon d'Automne, Bernheim Jeune, New York Art Students League
----
Signed lower right, 'Crotto' for Paul Crotto (French-American, 1922-2016); additionally signed, verso, and dated 1964.
A substantial Post-Impressionist oil showing a view of the River Marne on a sunny day beneath clouded blue skies.
Paul Crotto first studied at the Art Students League in New York, graduating in 1949. He then traveled and studied extensively in Europe, including two years spent in Florence at the Accademia di Belle Arti. Moving to Paris in 1951, he spent two influential years at the Academy of Fernand Léger where his fellow students included Le Corbusier, Sam Francis and Nicolas de Staël. During this early Paris period, Crotto rented Georges Braque’s former atelier at the Hotel Roma (for 9 francs a day). During these leaner, early Paris years, he also worked as an art teacher at the American School. Here he taught art to, among others, the children of Orson Welles and Rita Hayworth. He later attended the Atelier Lacourière in Montmartre where he studied graphic arts, particularly engraving. It was here that he became friendly with Henri Matisse and Joan Miró and, as a result, was invited to exhibit with Pablo Picasso and Marc Chagall. As his fortunes improved, Crotto purchased the atelier directly above the Léger Academy. After he married and started a family, he extensively enlarged the atelier to include a second floor with huge studio windows, both for living and painting.
In 1961, Crotto was discovered by the French gallerist Jeanne Castel who invited the artist to exhibit alongside the major contemporary Modernists of the School of Paris From this time on, his work gained wide public and critical acceptance. He continued to exhibit with success at solo and group shows, including at the Salon d'Automne, the Salon de la Jeune Peinture and at the Museum of Modern Art in Paris as well as in Munich, Boston, New York, Los Angeles and Munich. Over a long and distinguished career, Paul Crotto was the recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards including, in 1963, the Prix International de Villeneuve-sur-Lot.
