1955
About the Item
A charming and expressive depiction of youth done in a rare to find color palette. The thick paint and brushwork is exactly what Andre Cottavoz is collected for and this work is somewhat large scale for him.
Done in the tradition of a Chaim Soutine or a Frank Auerbach, this is a great style of painting that grew out of the work that Vincent Van Gogh did.
It is in a contemporary frame that has silvered leaf on the front face.
The canvas measures 25.75 x 19.5 within the frame so the total dimensions listed are the framed dimensions.

André Cottavoz
Born in 1922 in Saint-Marcellin near the town of Grenoble in France, André Cottavoz was passionate about painting from an early age. Encouraged by his mother, an artist herself, Cottavoz entered the Fine Arts School in Lyon at the age of 18. Despite having been pressed into service during WWII, Cottavoz continued to paint and draw through the early 1940s. After the end of War he, along with Pierre Coquet a fellow student from Lyon, co-founded a group of painters who called themselves Noisme, or Sanzisme (without ism), also known as the Lyon School of New Figuration. Comprised of artists under the age of 30, their sole purpose was to paint “in the light” with no particular defining or restricting technique, rejecting all current artistic trends. In 1953 Cottavoz was awarded the Fénénon Prize by the University of Paris. Such a commendation served to boost his reputation. A close friendship of Japanese art dealer Kiyoshi Tamenaga, whom he met in 1957, opened doors to Japan for Cottavoz hosting exhibitions of his work at his gallery in Tokyo. He died in 2012.

Le Paysage, French scene
By André Cottavoz
Located in Greenwich, CT
Painted in 1961 in the south of France, Le Paysage's jewel tones and energetic, thick brushwork lure you into not a literal landscape of paint and asks you to discern it's true content. It has charm, expressiveness, abstracted content and idiosyncratic nature! A delight to hang in a smaller intimate spot. The framing is carefully done with silvered 24 karat leafing around the float area of the frame and then a wide panel to allow the viewer to focus in on the composition itself and the texture of the paint.
Andre Cottavoz is very well noted artist of the French and Paris school of art...
