* Paul Guiramand (1926-2007):
is a French painter and engraver. A figurative painter, sometimes close to abstraction, Paul Guiramand is one of the young painters of the Nouvelle École de Paris. He is enrolled at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Paris in the studio of Jean Dupas. There he will meet his future classmates, among whom we find Jean-Pierre Alaux, Joseph Archepel, Roland Guillaumel, Louis Vuillermoz, Geoffroy Dauvergne, Jacques Berland, Émile Courtin, Mickaël Compagnion, Paul Ambille, Jean Joyet and his wife Marcelle Deloron. In 1952, he won the first prize in Rome, and resided in Rome at the Villa Medici from 1953 to 1956. Upon his return from Rome, he exhibited throughout the world. Interested in all techniques, in 1953 he began engraving and lithography in Maurice Mourlot's studio. In 1960, he illustrated the works of Guillaume Apollinaire and Ernest Hemingway, then turned to mosaics. He was a member of the Society of French Painters-Gravers.
