Les Rails
By Bernard Buffet
Located in New Orleans, LA
Bernard Buffet 1928-1999 French Les Rails (The Tracks) Signed "Bernard Buffet" (upper right); dated "1982” (upper left) Oil on canvas Once considered 20th-century France's most important painter, Bernard Buffet's stark and dramatic style defined the existential mood of the Post-War era. The present work, entitled Les Rails, was composed in 1982, decades after he had achieved an unparalleled level of artistic celebrity in Paris.

The artist's imagery, at once direct and indelibly haunting, reflects his renowned avant-garde attitude. Part of the artistic group known as "L'homme Témoin" ("The Witness-Men"), Buffet's canvases were in direct opposition to the ideals of abstraction, favoring to instead express feelings rather than physical reality. Here, Buffet applies his distinctively personal style to a seemingly abandoned line of buildings, paring the barren cityscape down to its most basic elements. The rich, dark colors, the haunting grey sky, and the harsh, bold lines combine to present a visceral visual masterpiece. Born in Paris, Buffet began his art studies at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts (National School of the Fine Arts) in December 1943, and worked in the studio of the painter Eugène Narbonne...
