Claude Weisbuch

 (1927-2014)

Claude Weisbuch was born in Thionville in 1927. Winner of the “Prix de la Critique” and professor at the “Ecole des Beaux-Arts de Saint-Etienne” in 1961, the 1960’s marked the beginnings of the artist’s international recognition and major critical acclaim. Using dark tones which express his sharp sense, Weisbuch has painted active motifs, such as musicians, horses and characters.

On April 13, 2014 Claude Weisbuch died in Paris.  The Art World has lost yet another great Artist!

Weisbuch’s work is represented in various museums and numerous collections both in France and abroad.
