Émile François Jacques Compard (1900-1977), French artist. Oil on woodwork. Abstract composition. Dated 1949.
Measures: 46 x 32 cm.
In very good condition.
Signed and dated.

Émile Compard was born on October 13, 1900 in Paris. He was encouraged from an early age by the collector Richard Goetz, who would later introduce him to Félix Fénéon. Fénéon owned the Galerie Bermheim-Jeune where Pierre Bonnard was also represented.

Compard studied at l’Académie Julian from 1916 to 1920 and at the Araujo atelier from 1920 to 1922. In 1961 Compard created a series of humorous drawings about his time spent at l’Acadédemie Julian.

Having worked under cubist influence and encouraged by Félix Fénéon and Pierre Bonnard, Compard came to experiment with the non-figurative. Compard was also greatly influenced by Taoist teachings and turned to the metaphysical in his work.

A collection of his work has been exhibited in a retrospective, “Émile Compard 1900-1977” at the Musée du Faouët in Morbihan, in the south of Brittany.
