BERNARD BUFFET (1928-1999) was a French painter, printmaker, and sculptor. An extremely prolific artist, he produced a varied and extensive body of work. His style was exclusively figurative and is often classified as Expressionist or "miserabilist". Buffet enjoyed worldwide popularity in the 1950s and was often compared to Pablo Picasso for his fame and talent. By the end of the 1950s, however, the public and art community turned strongly against him due to changing artistic tastes, Buffet's lavish lifestyle, and his extremely prolific output. The 21st century saw a renewed interest in his oeuvre. In December 2021, Bernard Buffet's painting, Les Clowns Musiciens, le Saxophoniste, sold for $2,111,306 USD at Christie's Hong Kong, setting a world record for the artist.
