Claude Venard, born March 21, 1913 in Paris and died December 30, 1999 in Sanary-sur-Mer, was a French painter belonging to the post-cubist movement.Having decided, at the age of seventeen, to devote himself to painting, he entered the École des -eight hours”, opting for training at the School of Applied Arts, which he attended diligently for six years.In 1936, he got a job as a restorer at the Louvre Museum. He took part in the “2nd Salon of the New Generation1” (1938) organized at the Billiet-Vorms gallery by Henri Héraut, on the occasion of which he launched his manifesto entitled Rupture.Mobilized during the Second World War, he devoted himself, after his demobilization, entirely to his painting and participated, from 1945 to 1963, in numerous salons: Salons des Indépendants, Tuileries, Mai (of which he was a founding member). From 1953, he made personal exhibitions in France, in many European countries and in the United States.Remaining faithful to a post-cubist composition of his pictorial space, he gradually accentuates the chromantism of his palette to the rawest tones always used in a rich and unctuous material2.His works are exhibited in particular at the Tate Gallery in London, the Whitney Museum in New York and the Museum of Modern Art in Paris, Montreal Museum - Museum Düsseldorf - São Paulo Museum - Mexico City Museum - Palm Springs Museum - Museum Basel - Museum München(?) - Tokyo Museum - Buenos Aires Museum - Dalla Museum
