Jean Messagier Art

French, 1920-1999

Jean Messagier was a French painter, sculptor, printmaker and poet. Messagier spent his childhood during the 1920s and 1930s between Paris and Franche-Comté, where he realized his first representational watercolors and drawings, portraits and landscapes. Messagier had his first solo exhibition in Paris at Galerie Arc-en-Ciel in 1947. From 1945–49, Messagier worked under the influence of Pablo Picasso, André Masson, Paul Klee and François Desnoyer, his professor at École Nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs in Paris.
