Gérard Willemenot Figurative Paintings
French, b. 1943
Gérard Willemenot (1943, Paris, France) graduated as an architect at the School of Art in Paris. After working
asan architect for twenty years, he decided to dedicate himself full-time to an old hobby: painting. Ever since his first exhibition, Willemenot knew he had taken the right decision. He works with egg-tempera on panel. Inspiration sources for Willemenot are old masters as Bosch, Bruegel and Memling. The subjects and technique of these old masters extremely fascinate him. The still life paintings and the use of trompe l'oeil by the Flemish painters of the 16th and 17th century inspire him as well. Gérard Willemenot's work is represented exclusively represented by Morren Galleries in the Netherlands.to

La Chute d'Icare Tempera on Panel Painting Icarus Falling Mythe Surreel In Stock. Sizes including frame.
Gérard Willemenot was born on February 11, 1943.
The World War and the deportation of his father to Mauthausen will strongly mark his childhood. He is the eldest son of a family of nine children. Very early in conflict with the national education system, he studied art, graduated as a decorator from the Applied Arts and then became a DPLG Architect and Urban Planner, jobs that he mistakenly exercised for twenty-five years!
His childhood and his years of architecture will make him a chronic misfit who hardly likes his time. Unable to remake the world, he will paint it in his own way, offbeat and timeless. Willemenot does not like so-called contemporary painting, which he considers an institutional hoax.
Willemenot's painting is simple. This is so-called “tempera” paint (which he makes himself). This technique, endangered, will be cooked with an immoderate love for the Middle Ages and its mysticism, to which should be added the influence of a few great elders such as Jérôme Bosch, Breughel or Patinir, but also that of contemporary painters such as Albert Drachkovitch or Jacques Poirier...
