Jules Cavailles Drawings and Watercolor Paintings

1901-1977

Jules Cavaillès was a painter whose art expressed the joy of living. Cavaillès was born on June 20, 1901, in Carmaux. He adored cheerful images that conjured up the pleasures of life, like sunny harbor scenes viewed through open windows, the lush countryside, naked women, colorful flowers in decorative interiors and even lobsters. He composed and recomposed this selected reality at leisure, presenting it through objects gleaned like repositories of memories, and he infused his art with life, thanks to pure colors stroked by a soft light. To quote Delacroix, Jules Cavaillès’s paintings are "a feast for the eye." He exhibited widely and won several prizes and his paintings are represented in major collections such as the Museum of Modern Art in Paris and the municipal art galleries of Albi, Marseille, Montpellier, Toulouse, Chicago, Helsinki, Tel Aviv and Zurich. Cavaillès died on January 29, 1977, in Épineuil.

Deco Dancing Hungarian Expressionism European Drawing Modernism Figurative Dance
By Hugó Scheiber
Located in New York, NY
Deco Dancing Hungarian Expressionism European Drawing Modernism Figurative Dance. 22 1/2 x 16 inches. Signed lower left. Framed. BIO Hugó Scheiber was born in Budapest in 1873. At the age of eight, he moved with his family from Budapest to Vienna. In 1898, to help support his family after they had returned to Budapest. He started working during the day, attending painting classes at the Commercial Art School in the evening. In 1900, he completed his studies. Scheiber showed an early interest in German Expressionism and Futurism. In 1915 he met Marinetti, who invited him to join the Futurist movement. Because Scheiber's paintings conflicted with academic style of the Hungarian art establishment, his work was virtually ignored in his own country. In 1919, he and his friend Béla Kádár held an exhibition organized by Hévesy in Vienna, which was a great success, so much so that the Budapest Art Museum purchased two of his drawings. In 1920, Scheiber returned to Vienna. A turning point in his career came in 1921 when Herwarth Walden, founder of Germany's leading avant-garde periodical, Der Sturm...
