OIL ON CANVAS CIRCA60. BEACH IN SAINT CYPRIEN. 54x65cm

Pierre Pruvost, after following classical training at the Beaux-Arts, obtained the Fénéon prize in 1951. He exhibited in Paris in 1943, first at the Salon des less than thirty years, then at the Salon des Indépendants and d'Automne where he appears regularly. In 1952, he became the first winner of the Abd-el-Tif prize and obtained a two-year scholarship.
It was at this moment that his talents as a colorist were revealed; he paints Algiers, its port, its boats, its inhabitants and its buildings with colorful shutters.

From 1950, he exhibited at the Galerie Guiot in Paris alongside his friend François Desnoyer, with whom his robust and colorful “cousin” figure then, from 1955, was presented by the Galerie Charpentier, school of Paris.
His work, lively and colorful, is often expressed through port views and lively beaches, with strong and saturated colors.
The Cagnes museum paid tribute to him and dedicated a major retrospective to him in 1993.
Pierre Pruvost is present in numerous French public collections, at the Museum of Fine Arts in Algiers, at the museums of Poitiers, Amiens, Belfort, Tipasa, Besançon, Montpellier, Rodez, Avignon, Saint-Cyprien, Bagnols-sur-Ceze and Turin.
