About the Item

Pierre Charbonnier (1897-1978) Small Rhone Gouache varnish on cardboard Signed "P. Charbonnier" and titled "Petit Rhône" lower right 15 x 20,5 inch Frame : 50 x 70 cm Born in 1897 in Vienne (Isère), Pierre Charbonnier was predestined for an artistic career from an early age. He received his first training at the School of Fine Arts in Lyon in 1915 before moving to Paris where he joined the Académie Ranson. He presented his first paintings at the Salon des Indépendants, the Salon des Tuileries and the Salon d'Automne in the early 1920s. He also exhibited in galleries in France (Henriette Gomès Gallery, Albert Loeb Gallery) and abroad (Italy, Japan, Brazil, Luxembourg). Active in the film industry, he also distinguished himself as a decorator, notably for the filmmaker Robert Bresson from 1934 to 1970, but also as a director. The theme of water is very present in the work of Pierre Charbonnier who grew up on the banks of the Rhone. The title "Le Petit Rhône" (The Little Rhone) annotated in the lower right-hand corner of the gouache we are presenting allows us to identify the river, which can be seen in the background behind stylized branches, reduced to thin, black, criss-crossing flat tints. The artist often situates his landscapes and other urban views, without which it would not be easy to identify the places in question (Drôme, Sète, Lyon, Barcelona etc.). The palette, reduced to blue, yellow and brown, draws here a landscape at the limit of abstraction. Living between Paris and the Drôme, Pierre Charbonnier paints numerous refined urban views with a constant concern for framing that shows an eye for photographic and cinematographic shots. These sometimes reveal the frame of a window opening onto a large perspective. His compositions are often very geometrical and put in scene urban elements in a static atmosphere. They are punctuated by large lines, sometimes horizontal, sometimes vertical, creating large voids. In the aftermath of the Second World War, his paintings illustrate in a falsely naive way the invasion of urban space by concrete constructions on which he poses an angelic gaze. As shown in the gouache we propose, the artist represents the modern city in full transformation, the city of factories and buildings integrating metal infrastructures and other long chimneys and technical materials such as the Pompidou Center inaugurated in 1977. Mostly inanimate, Pierre Charbonnier's landscapes made of pure and intense colors express the poetry of the modern post-war world. This refinement is also found in the artist's keen interest in poetry that he shares with his friends Max Jacob, Tristan Tzara, René Char, Jacques Prévert and Blaise Cendrars.
