Description

James Pichette is a French painter associated with the revival of non-figurative painting in post-war Paris and the movements of lyrical abstraction and informal art.

In 1960, he met SAM FRANCIS and CALDER in New York. Although he had already shown his art in numerous salons and other group exhibitions, the first exhibition entirely dedicated to him took place in 1949, in Paris.
James Pichette began his work as a painter in a figurative way, going through a Cubizing period like most young painters of his generation. Around 1947, he created his first abstract works. Later, from the 1960s (after his trip to New York), his painting left ample room for gesture and generous impasto, now situated between lyrical abstraction and more structured composition. From 1968, circular shapes were introduced into his compositions, working his canvas or paper with thin flat areas of color.
His works are in the collections of many museums in Germany, Belgium, Chile, United States, China, France, Israel, Mexico, Netherlands
