Gérard Valtier was born in 1950 in Morocco to French parents. At the age of 12, he entered the Beaux Arts in Reims and since then he has never “let go of the brush” which has made him famous today. Entrenched in the heart of Provence, his works vibrate with strong intensity. Internationally recognized for the extraordinary conviviality and optimism which emanate from his works, Gérard Valtier is an undisputed master of movement and light Endowed with an unusual energy, Gérard Valtier stages convivial festivals, street scenes, even mystical compositions. His works remind us of the period of Fauvism and Impressionism. He was able to develop with dexterity and a romanticism of his own, what we could call modern impressionism. His mystical, relatively confidential collection, entitled “The Golden Rose” has become an object of desire for major collectors. Through research on glazes and mastery of pictorial gesture, he always tends towards extremes and thus releases his emotions to find his balance. Gérard Valtier has, to his credit, more than 30 years of creation and exhibitions across Europe and the Americas.
