Gérard Valtier was born in 1950 in Morocco to French parents. From the age of 12, he entered the Beaux Arts de Reims and since then he has not "let go of the brush" which makes him famous today. Cut off in the heart of Provence, he makes his works vibrate with a strong intensity. Internationally recognized for the extraordinary conviviality and optimism that emerge from his works, Gérard Valtier is an undisputed master of movement and light Endowed with an unusual energy, Gérard Valtier stages convivial celebrations, 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 "La Rose d'Or" has become an object of desire for major collectors. Through research on glazes and mastery of the pictorial gesture, he always tends towards extremes and thus releases his emotions to find his balance. Gérard Valtier has more than 30 years of creation and exhibitions throughout Europe and the Americas.
