Bissière, Figure à part

Focusing on his painted work, the exhibition retraces the entire career of the artist from his figurative and post-Cubist period in the 1920s to the non-figurative period of the post-war years

Curator : Ivonne Papin-Drastik

Although removed from the official arts circuit but admired nevertheless, Roger Bissière has built, over the course of a long artistic and spiritual evolution, a corpus of work characterized by its humanist dimension. A respected teacher at the famous Académie Ranson, Roger Bissière trained a generation of young artists (Manessier, Moal, Vieira da Silva, Arpad Szenes ...) in the aftermath of the Second World War, paving the way for non-figuration.
