Childhood and youth


He was born in the Bourbonnais region in center of France in a bourgeois family. His father is a cavalry officer. His mother, cultivated and artist, watches over the intellectual and artistic education of her three children. She very quickly recognized the precocious artistic gifts of her son Guy, whom she strongly encouraged1.[1] He made his first exhibition in Clermont-Ferrand in 1938, when he was only thirteen years old. Shortly after, he discovered with fascination the world of museums, especially the Louvre. Major dazzling, in particular in front of the Corots, Ruysdaël, the School of Barbizon - and Rembrandts.

At the end of the war, in 1944, he made a short stint at the Beaux-Arts in Paris, whose academicism he rejected.

In 1952, he left his native Bourbonnais to settle in Arles then Fontvieille, where he lived until his death; a street bears his name[2] in each of these municipalities.[3]

Abstract Period

In the 60s, influenced among other contemporaries by Serge Poliakov and especially Nicolas De Staël, he painted abstract works. It is in particular the period of "Trigonometric Venus".[8][9] a series of female figures with geometric shapes inspired by Bernard Buffet This evolution towards geometric expression will continue in particular with his Jazz Rhythms series in which he explores the relationship between music and painting.[9][10]


Trees and Stones

In 1969, he began to graphically interpret the patterns, drawing trees and landscapes of Provence in the series "Trees and Stones", sketches of the Alpilles then developed in the workshop in large drawings in Indian ink, to feather or reed, sometimes on a light background of printing or colored wash, on the theme of Trees and stones.[11]


Les Baigneuses (Bathers)

The end of the 1970s saw the emergence of the Baigneuses series, oils on paper organized in horizontal registers, in which voluptuous female silhouettes. Around 1985, the landscapes and silhouettes were reduced to rhythmic volumes.[9][12]
