About the Item

In this painting, Henri Morez expresses his fight against the violence of the world in a more realistic way than he often does by depicting two bodies fighting each other, powerful, crying out for truth and strength. The dejection often depicted by the artist has no place in this painting which leaves the viewer to imagine the outcome of this fight. Width: 130 cm (55.19 inches) Heigth: 89 cm (35.04 inches) Biography : Henri Morez (1922-2017) Painter and cartoonist, friend of Sempé, Uderzo and Gosciny. Henri Morez was noticed at an early age by painter Emmanuel Mané-Katz. Talented artist, from the age of sixteen, he exhibited at the Salon d’Automne since 1938, but the war destroyed his world. Denounced, his entire family was deported, and he never saw them again. Art and and humor became a means of survival for the artist. In the 50s, his cartoons were published in Le Figaro littéraire, Paris Match, Jours de France… At the end of the 60s, he returned to painting, where he managed to make a name for himself in the Parisian milieu. For his first major exhibition, he was in 1968 at the gallery of Katia Granoff, who had worked to the recognition of Chagall and Soutine. Henri Morez’s sometimes immense canvases, with their clean, geometric forms, bordering on abstraction, and a great mastery of gradation reinforce this sense of vertigo and eternal flight. A chosen solitude, necessary for his creation, Morez lives in opposition and violence in his studio in the rue Notre-Dame-des-Champs, which was once Mané Katz’s studio.He died in his studio in 2017. Some of his exhibitions: 1968 Galerie Katia Granoff 1969 Galerie Christian Hals 1971 Centre culturel de Paris 1974 Galerie Transposition 1979-87 Galerie Claude Hemery 1980 Musée de Saint Maur 1982 Galerie du Cercle 1983 Galerie du Capricorne 1987-90 Galerie Forum des Arts 1988 Galerie de Sèvres 1989 Galerie Ariane 1993 Galerie Jean Tour 199 Galerie Sylvie Autef 2009 Galerie Larock-Granoff 2013 Galerie Schwab Beaubourg

"Personnage dans l'arbre", oil on canvas by Paul Ackerman, France, circa 1945

Located in Paris, FR

Large oil on canvas by Paul Ackerman, entitled « personnage dans l’arbre » (« character in a tree »). Biography Paul Ackerman, Romania-France (1908-1981) Paul Ackerman is a Romanian painter, lithographer, sculptor and theater designer, living in France since 1912, he belongs to the School of Paris . Paul Ackerman was four years old when, in 1912, his father, a company director and great art lover, decided, out of constraint in the face of « the anti-Semitism which is a harsh reality in Romania », to come and settle in Paris, in a large villa facing the Bois de Vincennes. He did his secondary studies at the Lycée Charlemagne (where he befriended Gabriel Arout, future playwright for whom he would later design the sets), then at the Ecole Alsacienne. From 1925, Ackerman studied law and letters at the Sorbonne, but, frequenting the Louvre Museum assiduously, he knew that his vocation lay elsewhere. In 1933, Paul Ackerman met Simone Laverrière, a native of Royan, whom he married in 1935. In 1936, in his studio at 100, rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, he designed projects for posters, fabrics and jewelry for Elsa Schiaparelli and Marcel Rochas while visiting Fernand Leger’s studio. In 1939 Paul Ackerman was mobilized, taken prisoner then released, he found his wife Simone in Vichy where he was expelled as a Jew and left for Saint-Tropez.
