Jacques Germain was a pupil of the Modern Academy, directed by Fernand Léger and Amédée Ozenfant, when Blaise Cendrars and Fernand Léger, in 1931, advised his parents to send him to the Bauhaus. He arrived in Dessau in October 1931, the only French student to study at the Bauhaus as a pupil of Kandinsky. Then, he goes to Frankfurt, where he follows the courses of the constructivist painter Willi Baumeister. With the arrival of the Nazis in power, he returned to Paris and worked in advertising design. In September 1936, Germain completed his military service, the war broke out a few years later, the artist was taken prisoner and remained in captivity for three years. When he returned to France, he devoted himself mainly to painting. In 1949, he made his first solo show in Paris.
