"Claude Venard (1913-1999), Still Life With Coffee Pot From 1942. "
Claude VENARD, French painter born on March 21, 1913 in Paris (75) and died on December 30, 1999 in Sanary-sur-Mer (83). He was a student at the School of Applied Arts. He painted from the age of 17 and was employed as a restorer of paintings at the Louvre Museum from 1936 to 1939, the year he was mobilized. During this troubled period, Claude VENARD managed to paint and sell his paintings to art dealers. After the war, he devoted himself entirely to his painting and exhibited mainly in Parisian salons from 1945 to 1963 (Salon des Indépendants, des Tuileries, de Mai). But from 1953 he held solo exhibitions in Europe and the United States. His post-cubist style uses a palette of raw tones in a rich and creamy material. His growing reputation has allowed him to be present in major private collections and in many museums around the world, including the Whitney Museum in New York, the Tate Gallery, the Tokyo Museum, Buenos Aires Museum, Dallas Museum, the Museum of Modern Art in Paris and many others. This superb work, an oil on canvas depicting a still life with a coffee pot dated (19)42 on the back, is a reflection of his art totally devoted to cubism and the use of colors typical of his palette.Dimensions: Height 55 cm. Width 46 cm (70 cm x 60.7 cm with its original frame).
