About the Publication: Douze Contemporains (Twelve Contemporaries), published in 1959 by Editions d'art du lion in collaboration with Boston Book and Art Shop, Inc., stands as a refined example of mid-century French printmaking, presenting a curated selection of contemporary artists through the exceptional pochoir and lithographic craftsmanship of Daniel Jacomet. The album exemplifies Jacomets meticulous approach to color separation and hand-stenciled execution, preserving the tonal richness and structural precision of each contributor's work. Produced during a flourishing period of international artistic exchange, the publication represents a transatlantic bridge between Parisian modernism and American collectors, reaffirming the cultural vitality and aesthetic ambition of postwar illustrated albums. About the Artist: Jacques Villon (1875–1963) was a French painter and printmaker whose pioneering fusion of Cubism, color theory, and lyrical abstraction made him one of the key architects of modern art. Born Gaston Emile Duchamp in Damville, France, he was the eldest brother of Marcel Duchamp and Raymond Duchamp-Villon, and together they became one of the most influential artistic families of the twentieth century. Adopting the pseudonym Jacques Villon, he carved out an independent identity as a visionary who bridged the analytical rigor of Cubism with the emotional freedom of abstraction. After moving to Paris in the 1890s, Villon immersed himself in the avant-garde circles of Montmartre and later the Puteaux Group—also known as the Section d'Or—alongside Fernand Leger, Francis Picabia, Jean Metzinger, Albert Gleizes, and his brother Marcel. Influenced by Paul Cezanne and working in creative dialogue with contemporaries such as Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, and Man Ray, Villon sought to reconcile scientific order and spiritual beauty through geometry, rhythm, and color. His early mastery of etching and aquatint earned him acclaim as a printmaker, while his paintings from the 1910s onward—such as Portrait of Marcel Duchamp (1913), The Rider (1914), and Composition Abstraite (1919)—demonstrated a unique Cubist lyricism characterized by transparent planes, interlocking forms, and prismatic use of light. Over the following decades, he transformed Cubism's intellectual structure into a radiant, harmonious abstraction that anticipated mid-century lyrical and color field painting. Like Kandinsky and Miro, Villon believed that art could evoke music's spiritual depth through pure form, while his chromatic harmonies inspired later artists such as Sonia and Robert Delaunay, Nicolas de Stael, Hans Hartung, and Victor Vasarely. Recognized internationally, Villon exhibited at the Venice Biennale, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Tate in London, and the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and in 1956 received the Grand Prize for Painting at the Venice Biennale for his lifetime achievements. His influence extended far beyond painting—his geometric precision and luminous palette shaped later movements including lyrical abstraction, Op Art, and postwar modernism. Villon remains a central figure in the evolution of modern art, a master whose elegant compositions continue to inspire collectors and creators worldwide. His highest auction record was achieved by Composition (Abstraction) (1919), which sold for 2.7 million USD at Sotheby's New York on November 7, 2018, reaffirming his status as one of the most refined and visionary artists of the twentieth century.
