Note: Goetz was born in the United States, moved to Paris and became a noted Surrealist artist and journalist of the surrealist movement. As a printmaker, Goetz invented carborundum printmaking in the 1960’s. In 1968, La gravure au carborundum, a treatise on carborundum printing, was published by the Maeght Gallery. It was prefaced by Joan Miró. Goetz created many abstract prints using this method. Other artists such as Antoni Clavé, Antoni Tàpies, and in particular Joan Miró, employed carborundum printing in their work.
Henri Bernard Goetz (1909-1989)
Henri Bernard Goetz was born 29 September 1909 in New York, in a family of French and American origin. He studied at Harvard University and the Grand Central Art School before moving to Paris in 1930 where he continued his studies at the Academies Julian and Academies Ozenfant in Montparnasse.
After a brief return to the US in the early 1930’s he settled permanently in France, taking a Parisian studio next to Victor Brauner. With Brauner Goetz became involved with the Surrealist group and was soon a highly accomplished exponent. 1935 would be a year of major importance for Goetz: he exhibited for the first time at the Salon des Surindependants, he married the Dutch painter Christine Boumeester and he met Hans Hartung, who would become a close lifelong friend. In 1937 Goetz held his first solo show at Galerie Van Leer, Paris.
During the war, having neglected to become naturalized French citizens, Goetz and Boumeester became illegal aliens and both worked in the resistance movement. They printed leaflets on a simple printing press and created posters to paste on walls around Paris. However, they primarily worked to forge identity documents. They were nearly captured in 1942 and forced to flee to the south of France which had already become something of a colony for displaced artists, and remarkably resilient creative spirits. After the Liberation of Paris in 1944, Goetz and his wife were able to return.
The post-war period would witness the consecration of Henri Goetz’s career. He gained increasing critical acclaim, while his work became more abstracted, freed from any surrealist references. He became highly celebrated holding over a hundred one man shows in France and abroad.
He taught at many schools before finally founding the Académie Goetz in André Lhote’s old building. Goetz never charged money for his lessons. in 1967 was awarded the Chevalier des Arts and in 1968 he accepted a teaching position at École des Beaux-Arts, but the school was closed due to student strikes two weeks later. He then moved to work at Paris 8 University, where he taught painting and etching classes.
His work can now be found in numerous museums and institutions throughout the world including the Musée National d’Art Moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Musée Goetz-Boumeester, Villefranche-sur-Mer; San Francisco Museum of Art; National Art Foundation, Illinois; Phoenix Art Museum; San Diego Museum; Museum of New Mexico, Santa Fe; Museum of Budapest; Jerusalem Museum.
