Oil on canvas "Vacances à Chamalières" (Auvergne) by I. Guisset

Ignace guisset - holidays in chamalières (54 X 65 cm) Ignace guisset, between new fauvism and pop art! Born in montignies-sur-sambre in 1920 and died in woluwe saint pierre in 2000. He trained at the academy of saint-josse-ten-noode from 1972 where he obtained a degree in drawing in 1977 and painting in 1979. He won the first prize of the jeunesses culturelles and the grand prix de wallonie in 1983. He has collaborated on the murals on rue de brabant and rue de liedekerke in brussels. He likes to paint landscapes, figures, portraits, city views (brussels) and fair scenes. These landscapes are inspired by the surroundings of brussels (grimbergen or the sonian forest, for example), provence and auvergne. New fauve, he is a convinced colorist with a touch and a dynamic style going as far as the clash of colors, not without recalling pop art. Represented in the collections of the charlier museum in saint-josse-ten-noode and in the communal house of woluwe saint pierre.
