克勞德.維士巴修 CLAUDE WEISBUCH (b.1927)
Born in Thionville, France, Claude Weisbuch was a student at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Nancy. He specialize in various print-making methods, and can easily recreate motifs of people, horses, operas etc. His reputation grew starting the year of 1951, when his works were exhibited at the Contemporary Young Artists Exhibition, Gallery Lorton, Balkh Gore, and Paris "Les Témoins du Temps" Exhibition. In 1957, his first solo exhibition was held at the Galerie Saint-Placide, where the major art critique awards take place in Paris. Themes revolve around the crooked nose hunchbacks from Italian mask carnivals to the humorous characters from French puppet shows. The simplicity of each image has exempted all irrelevant details that distracts the center of attention. Claude Weisbuch fully developed his style in his 60's, focusing on minimum colors but emphasize on the flow of his lines. He received the great Art Critique Award in 1961, which expanded his fame significantly. The success brought him to several contracted solo exhibitions at Galerie Hervé and many other international exhibitions in Europe, United States, and Japan. In 1968, he was granted a membership at the French Print Making Association and was invited to teach at the Ecole des Beaux-arts de Saint-Étienne. Since 1970, he started a long-term relationship with Gallery Tamenaga, meanwhile his works were acquired by the Museum of Modern Art Paris. In the year of 1988, Château de Chenonceau held an exhibition in tribute of him. Undeniably, Weisbuch is one of the representative artist for contemporary arts today.
