The French Artist Blog

We would like to welcome you first to this new blog that we called the French Artist blog. We are going to feature many of the Famous French Artists in all field of Arts such as paintings, sculptures, architectures, music, films and many more.

Here are some of the Famous French Artists: Balthus, Nicolas Poussin, Louis Le Vau, Gustave Moreau, Gustave Courbet, Charles Baudelaire, Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Vincent van Gogh, Paul Gauguin, Henri Rousseau, Les Nabis, Pablo Picasso, Auguste Rodin and many more.

The late 1950s and early 1960s in France saw art forms that might be considered Pop Art. Yves Klein had attractive nude women roll around in blue paint and throw themselves at canvases. Victor Vasarely invented Op-Art by designing sophisticated optical patterns. Artists of the Fluxus movement such as Ben Vautier incorporated graffiti and found objects into their work. Niki de Saint-Phalle created bloated and vibrant plastic figures. Arman gathered together found objects in boxed or resin-coated assemblages, and César Baldaccini produced a series of large compressed object-sculptures. In May 1968, the radical youth movement, through their atelier populaire, produced a great deal of poster-art protesting the moribund policies of president Charles de Gaulle.

Many contemporary artists continue to be haunted by the horrors of the Second World War and the specter of the Holocaust. Christian Boltanski's harrowing installations of the lost and the anonymous are particularly powerful.
