Bernard Buffet
A painting must be analysed but sensed.
Born in Paris, Bernard Buffet was barely 16 when he enrolled in an art class in a municipal program. He went on to attend Beaux-Arts for two years. Then he started working on his own, independent of any movement or trend. He first showed some of his work with other artists in 1946, which was followed by his participating to various events, Salon d’Automne, Artistes Indépendants, Peintres Témoins . . .
See & discover
Beyond works currently in stock, it seemed to me useful to combine business with pleasure by letting you discover others works by artists in my gallery. These artworks, now sold or removed from our website, have been in our stock in the past. These pages will undoubtedly make it possible for some of you to associate an image with its title or the other way round, for others it will be a good time to discover more on such and such artist. For the sake of confidentiality – the pieces being no longer available – we won't display neither their numbering or their price. For whatever reason, make sure to visit this amazing art database with to date 6441 online works just for your pleasure! Michelle Champetier

Stamp by Bernard Buffet
The publication of a postal stamp is often a homage paid by a nation to a place, an event, a remarkable cause or a character which count. The painters and other artists do not escape from this rule. Some are however "forgotten" of postal art. Here, gathered below (French or foreign), emitted stamps (206) or simple studies of stamp (224) in homage to the artists represented on our website. The first French stamp was emitted in 1849, England preceded us by ten years. There is often a share of voyage in this small form of shape paper. The stamp circulates, sails, flies away, it makes dream, then dream a little. M.C.
When the stamp is really emitted, the artist name is preceded of an asterisk (*). It is certain that we do not know each stamp emitted for such or such artist; do not hesitate with us to make known them!

A tribute to Bernard Buffet
Sorry this section is only available in french for now.
Le 4 octobre 1999, à 71 ans, le peintre Bernard Buffet s’est donné la mort dans sa propriété du Domaine de la Baume, à Tourtour (Var) où il vivait retiré. Il souffrait de la maladie de Parkinson et ne pouvait plus travailler. Bernard Buffet repose dans un des lieux qui lui avait procuré le plus de plaisir au monde : ses cendres ont été dispersées dans le parc du Musée Bernard Buffet à Higashino-Hachibudaira, ville de Nagaizumi (Japon). En hommage à sa mémoire, que les pétales de la rose qui porte son nom colorent le vent.
"Entré en peinture comme on entre en religion, il a trouvé une terre d'asile, son atelier. Qui de l'angoisse ou de la sérénité lui tiendra compagnie ? Encore une question inutile ... On parle toujours trop. " - Annabel Buffet
"Il témoigne puissamment du désarroi de notre époque. L'inaction de ses personnages, leur vie absurde, Bernard Buffet les exprime comme un mal dont on est soi-même victime, avec violence en se donnant soi-même tout entier à cette oeuvre de vengeance, c'est à dire en y mêlant intimement l'amour et la haine." - Pierre Descargues
"L'abstrait, c'est limité et ennuyeux, tandis que la peinture figurative est illimitée." - Bernard Buffet
"Les impressionnistes ? Je déteste. Tout ce flou me rend malade." - Bernard Buffet
"De tes mains s’écoulait la lumière / Que tes yeux puisaient dans la terre. / Afin qu'éclate en toi l'orage / Qu'à chaque aube tu couchais sur les toiles..." - Nicolas Buffet, extrait d’un poème hommage
"On te disait mort. On se trompait. Tu es vivant." - Annabel Buffet
