Description: JEAN MESSAGIER1920 - 1999 GACHETTE POUR UN ARBRE - ETCHING WITH AQUATINTEPREUVE ARTISTE ASIDE FROM THE EDITION OF 30 Jean Messagier was a French painter, sculptor, printmaker and poet. He had his first solo exhibition in Paris at Galerie Arc-en-Ciel in 1947. From 1945 to 1949 the artist 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. Messagier again was revealed to the public at an exhibition organized by Charles Estienne at the Galerie de Babylone in 1952, entitled "La Nouvelle École de Paris". The following year, Messagier deliberately broke away from his expressionistic form of Post-Cubism; his inspirations now focused on Jean Fautrier and Pierre Tal-Coat to develop a personal vision in which he renders "light...approached abstractly." Jean Messagier is often associated with Lyrical abstraction, Tachisme, Nuagisme, Art informel and paysagisme abstrait, though the artist himself had never accepted any labels, and had always refused the distinction between abstraction and figuration. From 1962 until the year of his death Jean Messagier exhibited in France and abroad, taking part in some major international events as a representative of new trends in French painting.ETCHING WITH AQUATINT ON ARCHES, FRANCE WATERMARKED WOVE PAPER, SIGNED, TITLED, INSCRIBED & DEDICATED; BOTH IN PENCIL & INK.
