Roger Herson Figurative Paintings

French, 1922-2008

Roger Herson was a French abstract, Cubist and Surrealist painter from Rouen, France. Influenced by Picasso, Braque and Léger, he infuses the canvas with a frenzied and tonic movement, a rigorous construction and a personal graphic power. Painter of woman, desire and fantasies, Herson draws his inspiration from the verve and Surrealist movement inspired by Georgio de Chirico. Tenderness, pertinence, humor and delirium are the main ingredients of his work, which bursts with radiant colours and dramatic shapes, and makes wonderful and unique interior decorations. The influence from later Picasso is very obvious in his work.
