About the Item
Mid 20th Century still life oil on canvas by noted French artist Jean Arène. Signed bottom middle, presented in fine wood frame with gilt filet.
A very charming still life of fruits and a bowl on a table, a tribute to Cezanne who was such an inspiration to the artist Jean Arène. Full of colour and texture Arene has created a classical composition in his own characteristic style a foretaste of his later works and his renowned Provencale paintings.
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 and this is a rare and early example of his work.
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.
