Born in 1931, Michel Saillour established himself as a painter and engraver whose work, both sensitive and rigorous, fully fits within the great French post-war tradition. Trained in an artistic context of reconstruction, he develops early on a personal language where light, matter and structure become the foundations of his plastic research. Painter attentive to atmospheres, Saillour explores landscapes, still lifes and intimate scenes with a subtle and nuanced palette. His compositions, of great sobriety, emanate a silent, almost meditative presence. Each painting bears witness to a rare mastery of space and a keen sense of balance.
Parallel to his pictorial work, Michel Saillour also distinguishes himself as an engraver, a field in which he excels through the finesse of his line and the precision of his compositions. His prints, often imbued with the same poetry as his paintings, reveal a strong graphic sensitivity and a high technical requirement. This double practice reinforces the coherence of his work and shows a constant curiosity for the possibilities offered by different media.
Recognized in galleries and national exhibitions, Saillour attracts a loyal audience, sensitive to the delicacy of his gaze and the quality of his plastic writing. Today, his works — paintings as well as engravings — are sought after for their timeless elegance and their ability to establish a peaceful dialogue with space.
