Biography:
Jean-Claude PICOT is a French painter born in 1933. Since 1956, Jean Claude Picot has worked exclusively as a professional artist. He is greatly influenced by the works of the Fauvist masters such as Vlaminck, Derain, and Matisse, whose exuberant canvases drew attention in the first decade of the 20th century for their revolutionary use of color, texture, and abstract form. These artists inspired Jean-Claude PICOT for decades and one can see this influence in his work.

Picot has developed a unique style that recalls an post-impressionist application of color, combined with the expressive qualities of form and line. His compositions are often soothing, carrying his own joie de vivre. He frequently captures animation, romance, and the essence of the landscape as a favorite subject, although he also paints still lifes, urban landscapes, markets, and festival scenes. All of his work is imbued with the same bright, joyful character and is immediately recognizable.

Since 1947, he has exhibited in more than fifty solo shows worldwide, including exhibitions in the United States, Belgium, Norway, and Australia. Picot spends part of the year in the south of France and is drawn to the Côte d’Azur—its visitors, its beaches, and its harbors full of boats. His work is rich in natural beauty and features breathtaking panoramic views bathed in the unique Mediterranean light. Picot works in a post-impressionist manner, reducing flowers, trees, houses, and figures to their essential forms.

In reviews of Picot’s most recent solo exhibitions in Paris, Bordeaux, and Oslo, critics have noted the affinities between the masters of Impressionism and early 20th-century Fauvism with Picot’s work. Today, in the 21st century, Picot continues the tradition of the great French landscape painters.

Picot works actively in many media—oil, acrylic, watercolor, engraving, ceramic, and more recently screen printing and embellished silk-screen printing—capture his vibrant color and painterly technique magnificently. His work is a favorite among collectors worldwide and is represented in prestigious collections around the globe.
