VICTOR BRAUNER (1903/1966), FRENCH PAINTER OF ROMANIAN ORIGIN – When each painting you make is projected from the deepest sources of your own anxiety.

Painting is life, the real life, my life.

During your creative evening in the City of Light, feast your senses on the vibrant color of the iconic Moulin Rouge: take your seat in the theater, and prepare for a dazzling spectacle. In Paris, the National Museum of the Renaissance features a huge collection of artworks dating back to the 15th to the 17th centuries. Since 1977, the museum has been housed in the Château d’Écouen. Before leaving, if you want to observe some special paintings by a Romanian painter, don’t forget the Georges Pompidou Center and at the Palais de Tokyo.

In 1925, a trip to Paris – the city where he grew artistically, dying – led him to discover Giorgio de Chirico and the surrealist painters. He was a Romanian visual artist who has had numerous exhibitions. Many works by VICTOR BRAUNER have been sold at auction (such as “Tableau Autobiographique / Ultratableau Biosensible”, sold at Sotheby’s New York in 2008 for $993,000). He is best known for his two-dimensional compositions, as well as his use of encaustic (a technique incorporating wax into paint). His stint with Surrealism saw the creation of strange compositions, consisting of creatures inspired by autobiographical tales.

Hi is the most important painter of the Romanian avant-garde, and most of his oeuvre fits within Surrealism. As early as 1930, he settled in Paris, where he lived in the same building with Alberto Giacometti. During World War II he left Paris to travel around France, causes of his continuously transforming style. By 1948 he began experimenting in other genres, choosing to return to more primitive in his work. After several large Surrealist exhibitions, in 1966 VICTOR BRAUNER is chosen to represent France at the Venice Biennale. In Paris, his pictorial work, very colorful and particularly imaginative, is very well represented in the Georges Pompidou Center and at the Palais de Tokyo.
