Robert Bouroult: On the occasion of the release of the book “Robert Bouroult, 1894-1975: itineraries of a painter”, the Pontarlier Museum (Doubs) is dedicating an exceptional retrospective exhibition to this artist thanks to loans from private collectors. Gustave Courbet said he painted what he saw and not what he imagined, Robert Bouroult was in the same line, the same logic. This painter who left his mark on the Comtoise school has unjustly been forgotten. The Pontarlier museum is putting it back in the light thanks to a retrospective. Across five rooms, the exhibition retraces his life and work thanks to exceptional loans from private collectors. From Paris to Pontarlier Robert Bouroult (1894 - 1975) was born in Paris. This extraordinary man lived through both world wars, he was a soldier in the trenches in 14-18. After five years of war, in 1918, he joined the workshop of the painter Cormon in Paris. There he met Robert Fernier who took him to Pontarlier. Talented landscaper and portraitist Leaving more than 300 works behind him, Robert Bouroult is above all a landscaper. Traveling through Haut-Doubs, he found subjects to paint in nature that changed with the seasons: the banks of the Doubs, the lake, the Château de Joux. He was also a very talented portrait painter. We owe him the Salon des Annonciades Very involved in Pontissalian life, he was one of the linchpins of the prisoners of war association but also of the swimming club. Above all, in 1924 with Robert Fernier, André Roz and André Charigny, he created the Salon des Annonciades where he exhibited every year until 1963.
