Title: Trouville, the Beach Artist: Yves Ganne (1931-2019) Technique: Oil on canvas mounted on a frame. Signed at the bottom left. Format: 54 x 64 cm Condition: Good condition. Yves Ganne was born in Angers on July 13, 1931. He studied at the School of Fine Arts of Nantes, which he joined in 1946. In 1950 he moved to Paris to join Fernand Léger’s studio. In 1950 he also received two major distinctions: the Prize for Young Painting and the Prize of the City of Menton. His talent was recognized by institutions as early as 1951, when two of his paintings were acquired by the National Museum of Modern Art in Paris. He regularly exhibited in Paris, notably at the Galerie Drouant-David (1954, 1958) and more recently at Galerie Francis Barlier in Paris and Honfleur (1994, 2003, 2004). He also exhibited with the greats, notably in 1954 with Bernard Buffet at the Visconti gallery. His work transcends French borders. As early as 1956, he was shown at Arthur Tooth & Sons Gallery in London. His work was also presented in the United States: at Cushman Gallery in Houston (1959), at Van Diemen Lilienfeld Gallery in New York (1966), then at Dalzell-Hatfield Gallery in Los Angeles (1968). In Sweden, he was welcomed at Borstahusens Konstforening Gallery at Landskrona Konsthall (1975). Yves Ganne participated in numerous group exhibitions: the Salon de la Jeune Peinture, the Salon de l’École de Paris at Galerie Charpentier (from 1954), the Salon des Peintres Témoins de Leur Temps (1956), and the first Paris Biennale in 1959. His style, deeply rooted in the French figurative tradition, is distinguished by a personal vision of still life, the female portrait, and genre scenes. He avoids any academicism by favoring a sensitive and balanced expression, where color plays a central role. From 1965 onward, he produced more than 250 original lithographic editions, distributed in France, the United States, Great Britain, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, and Japan. Today his works are held in prestigious public collections in France, notably the National Museum of Modern Art – Centre Pompidou, the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, but also internationally, such as at the Cincinnati Museums (Ohio), the Seattle Museums (Washington), or Edinburgh in Scotland."} }|} } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } }
