Lucien Philippe Moretti Figurative Prints
French, 1922-2000
Lucien-Philippe Moretti is a French painter born in Suresnes in 1922, died in Étretat in 2000.
A student of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris in the 1940s, he was made an associate member of the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts in 1947. Moretti will live several years in Montmartre. He left La Butte in 1963. His drawings immortalize the youth of the 1950s, the hippies of the 1960s. short skirts and boys with long hair. Moretti decides to revive through his painting a mythical, Edenic era. His scenes are crowds of characters taken out of his dreams in very symbolist representations which will be his trademark and will open the doors to a great career. He exhibited in all the biggest galleries in Paris, notably at the Roussard gallery, then also abroad from the 1960s (New York, Miami, Montreal, Tokyo, etc.).to
