Bibliographie /Literature
Gaston Suisse, splendeur du laque art déco. Emmanuel Bréon. Somogy Éditions d'art, Paris 2013, reproduite page 105 (un autre exemplaire reproduit)
The artist made a wood engraving of which he made about twenty prints himself.
These proofs were not marketed as is, Gaston Suisse reworked each of the proofs using Indian ink washes in order to obtain different effects for each proof, which are thus unique original works.
Born in 1896 in a family of artists, his father Georges was a close friend of Siegfried Bing and a great lover of Japanese art and a bibliophile. He passed his taste for art to his son whom he often took to draw at the Botanic Garden . Around 1910, Gaston Suisse, who hasn't entered yet the artistic school, met Paul Jouve, then 18 years his elder, who was already famous.
In 1911, at the age of 17, he entered the National School of Decorative Art where he followed the teachings of Paul Renouard. Thanks to his knowledge and taste for the Japanese art, he chose lacquer painting as his specialty. His practice of this noble and demanding subject were so much appreciated that he was awarded with two gold medals in 1913 and 1914. Mobilized during the war , he joined the army and go in Salonika where he found his friend Jouve. In 1918, he finished his studies at the School of Applied Arts in order to perfect his training. He learned in particular the techniques of gilding and oxidation of metals. The first productions of Gaston Suisse, furniture and objects in lacquer with geometrical patterns, were an instant success and Suisse was appointed as member of Salon d'Automne in 1924, the very year of his first exhibition. Considered as an artist-decorator, his sincere and deep friendship with Jouve linked him in parallel with the groups of the animaliers of the Jardin des Plantes and became a close friend of Edouard-Marcel Sandoz. When travelling to Maghreb and Middle-East between 1923 and 1925, he produced numerous drawings representing antelopes, apes and fennec foxes judged of very good quality by his peers from the circle of animaliers. It is under the encouragement of Jouve that he has participated for the first time in the exhibition of animaliers at the Brandt gallery in 1927 where he presented screens, lacquer panels and fireplace screens with decoration of birds whose "brilliance and rhythm" were praised. Suisse treats fishes and birds in the manner of the Far-East masters whose works have nourished his artistic education from childhood while he represents the mammals in a purely Art Deco style by using structured, sometimes even geometric backgrounds whose decorative effect is undeniable. The artist spent most of his time in his atelier and granted only few interviews to the journalists acclaiming however his work. Only his passion for animals made him leave his studio to study them on the field, or at least those that he did not raised at home since he owned birds, snakes, mongooses and other exotic animals. The Museum of 1930s in Boulogne-Billancourt preserves today the immense composition realized for the International Exhibition of Arts et Techniques in 1937, while his creations with animal decorations are scattered all over the world, in the United States and South America in particular. Artist with worldwide success, the Vernon museum organized in 2000 a retrospective exhibition exclusively dedicated to his works devoted to animals.
